Export Your Data
Wherever you look at your data in Rostoc, there’s a way to take it with you — your whole account, a single roast, or an inventory snapshot built for handing to someone outside Rostoc.
Export your whole account
Section titled “Export your whole account”Go to Settings, and under Your data click Export all my data.
This downloads a single ZIP file with everything Rostoc holds for your account:
- Every roast batch and its full curve — every recorded channel with its label, unit and role, plus milestones and any control changes you made during the roast
- Your green coffee — coffee lines and lots
- Your plans
- Your machines
It’s free on every plan, with no limit on how far back it goes — this is your data, and leaving shouldn’t cost anything.
For a large account, preparing the file can take a minute. You’ll see a status message while it works, and you can leave the page and come back — Rostoc keeps preparing it in the background. When it’s ready, a Download button appears showing the file size and a summary of what’s inside. The prepared file stays available for a week; after that, request a new one.
Curves come in two formats inside the ZIP: a CSV for opening straight in a spreadsheet, and a JSON version that keeps each channel’s unit and role attached to the numbers, for anyone building something with the data.
Export a single roast
Section titled “Export a single roast”Open any batch’s detail page, click Actions, then Export as CSV or Export as JSON.
This downloads immediately — there’s no wait, even for a long roast. Use it when you need one roast only: to check something in a spreadsheet, or to hand a single result to someone without sending your whole account.
Both formats carry the same table: every channel your machine recorded, and the roast’s milestones and control changes on one timeline. The file is named after the roast, so a folder of exports reads the way your batch list does.
Export an inventory snapshot
Section titled “Export an inventory snapshot”Open the Inventory Dashboard, click the ⋯ menu, then Download snapshot….
This one is different — not your data to take with you, but a report built for handing to someone outside Rostoc: an accountant closing the month, an insurer, a lender. It shows stock and value per coffee line, with no lot-level detail.
By default it downloads as of today. Pick an earlier date in the dialog instead to get stock and value as they stood at the end of that day — useful for closing last month’s books after the month has already turned over. If your coffee is priced in more than one currency, the file keeps each currency’s total separate rather than adding them together.
