Why are my personal Export Templates not showing up in the drop-down when I export my data?
When you create an export template in Personal Settings, you will be asked to choose which resource you want the export template to be for. You will then only see the export template option when you are in that specific resource. For example, if I create a new export template for membership subscriptions, this export template will only be available when I export membership subscriptions specifically.
The same concept applies to creating an export template from the export data prompt that comes up when you export your data. For example, if I export contacts and want to save the template, it will only appear as an option for contact exports.
