save and export wheel results: the short answer
Export important data before clearing the list or browser storage. Review every shared URL and file for names or sensitive labels, because a copy outside the wheel is controlled by the person who receives or stores it.
Choose the right record format
Use History for quick review, CSV for lists and counts, JSON receipts for structured draw evidence, screenshots for a visible moment, and a share URL for recreating supported text entries.
No single format proves every part of an event. Pair the source list, announced rules, and result when verification matters.
Understand what a share link contains
A generated link can encode current text entries and selected modes. Anyone receiving it may be able to read those values, copy them, or forward the URL.
Uploaded images may remain only in the current browser session and may not be included in the share link or CSV. Confirm the behavior before relying on it.
Export before clearing local data
Browser storage, reset controls, private browsing, or cache cleanup can remove preferences and local history. Download required records first.
Store files in an approved location and apply the organization’s retention and access rules.
Protect privacy in exports and screenshots
Replace full names with participant IDs when possible. Crop unrelated tabs, email addresses, admin bars, or private notes before sharing an image.
Delete obsolete copies and revoke access to shared folders when the record is no longer needed.

save and export wheel results FAQs
Does CSV include the wheel design?
CSV is designed for structured entry data, not a visual copy of colors, skins, or uploaded images.
Can I share a wheel with private names?
Avoid it unless every recipient is authorized. Use neutral IDs or a private approved channel.
What does a draw receipt prove?
It helps detect changes to the saved draw details; it does not prove the source list was complete or lawful.
