We would like to be able to export user photos so that we can import them into other software. At this time, we can only get a list with the file names, and that isn't helpful in this scenario.
This idea has been around for about 5 years. I can't understand if the photo is an actual file what is the problem with exporting that file. The file was uploaded and therefore should be able to be downloaded as a file. Please look into this as it is a major issue, as Tamara pointed out, what is the purpose of a database if the data cannot be extracted.
Yes, this is outrageous that we are putting data into our database that cannot be exported out! Now that I know I can't export, it makes me not want to store the photos in the database, or I will have to store them twice...one in Blackbaud, and one on a hard drive. The whole point of a database is to have everything together in one place.
Seems odd that we can create lists with photos, but we can't export the list with the photos. I appreciate that there's work on the back end, but it feels like the work is more than halfway done.
We have a number of integrations with services like REACH and Naviance and if photos cannot be pulled as part of the integration there needs to be a way to export user photos (ideally one of the options being from a list) so they can be more easily imported.

I would like to be able to export the photos to lists we use for quarterly all-student meetings. Patty Boman

I vote for this as well. It would be a huge help and save us tons of time!
I vote for this as well. We have the photos obviously, we had to upload them, but we need to be able to export them along with relevant student data.
