Navigate to Data Export > Integrations, select a connected integration, then run an export. The flow varies by platform.
Energy Star (tabbed portfolio)
Open Data Export > Integrations > Energy Star. The Sync & Download tab holds the export form and recent history. Common fields:
| Field | Description |
|---|
| Utility type | The commodity to export (electricity, gas, water, etc.) |
| Date range | Start and end dates for the billing periods to include |
| Sites | Multi-select to scope the export to specific sites |
| Include flagged bills | Toggle on to include bills that have data quality flags |
Energy Star pushes directly to EPA Portfolio Manager via API.
Single-page hubs (Metrio, Watershed, Sphera)
These integrations use a single-page hub — not tabs. Click Export on the status card to open the export dialog. Recent exports appear in the Recent syncs & downloads card on the same page.
Fields vary by platform (for example Metrio requires one utility type per export; Sphera supports multi-select utility types). See each integration’s guide:
Metrio, Watershed, Sphera, and Energy Star support direct API upload when you enable the upload toggle in the export form.
Export-only integrations (Sinai, Unravel)
These integrations use a multi-step export wizard:
- Export type — Choose the scope (e.g., Scope 1, Scope 2, Water, Waste for Sinai).
- Data scope — Date range, sites, and filter options.
- Export options — Export name and file format.
- Preview & download — Review the data summary, then download the file.
Export process
Once you submit the form:
- A progress dialog appears showing the export status as Nectar formats and transmits the data.
- On success, a confirmation dialog displays a summary and, where applicable, a download link for the exported file.
- The export is recorded in your Export History.
Troubleshooting
If an export fails, check the following:
- Credentials — Ensure the integration’s API key or login is still valid.
- Date range — Confirm that bills exist for the selected period and sites.
- Platform limits — Some platforms impose rate limits or file size restrictions. Try reducing the date range or number of sites.
