# Exporting Amazon Compute Optimizer recommendations
<a name="exporting-recommendations"></a>

You can export your recommendations to record them over time, and share the data with others. Recommendations are exported in a CSV file, and its metadata in a JSON file, to an existing Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) bucket that you specify.
