# Change the Maximum Number of Documents to Export

The Export Results to CSV option allows you to export the documents in a search results list to a file. By default, Find does not limit the number of documents to export. For searches with a very large number of results, the export might be quite slow. In this case, you can improve the performance by reducing the maximum number of results to export.

TIP: You can also change the columns that Find exports in the CSV. See Configure Fields to Export.

To change the maximum number of documents to export

1. Go to the Find home directory.

2. Open `config.json` in a text editor.

3. Add the `exportStoreStateMaxResults` property, and set it to the maximum number of results to include in the export. For example:

       "exportStoreStateMaxResults": 10000

   This example exports only the first 10000 results.

4. Restart Find to apply your configuration changes.
