Export your OCM data with Windows PowerShell

  • Create a New Folder on your computer in order to easily locate your OCM data. To make the process easier, we suggest using the C: disk and naming the folder something like OCM-Export
  • Download the Windows PowerShell Script from the following link and save it to your new folder.
    Windows PowerShell for OCM Export
  • Use your Windows Start menu, and type PowerShell. From within the menu, Right-Click on Windows PowerShell app. Choose “Run as administrator”. Then, select Yes to allow changes.
  • In the PowerShell window, navigate to the script file location by typing: cd C:\OCM-Export and then press Enter. (Or if you used another location or file name, type: cd LOCATION:\FILENAME )
  • Still in the PowerShell window, type: .\OCM-Script.ps1 export-all-data and press Enter.
  • The credentials page will ask for your Office 365 email and password. Choose OK, and you should see the progress of the script.
  • Your OCM data files will save automatically in CSV format to a sub-folder of the script location. You can then view your data using a CSV compatible program such as Microsoft Excel. Contact us to learn about migrating your data to a more powerful Outlook based CRM!
