After searching for a repository, you can export the search results to your local system. The exported file is saved in the comma-delimited format (.CSV) with double-quotes so that you can use it in other applications.
Note: Some of the column names are different in the exported file. For example, Repository
Name is displayed as Name and Default Profile Pattern is displayed as Default Pattern
and Language/Region is displayed as Sort Locale.
