Export

Turn a sketch into your source of record.

Data, not pictures

Export produces structured, import-ready data — not screenshots. Open Export from the tool rail, choose a format, and Railyard generates a bundle and reports any placements it couldn't resolve, so a sketch becomes the source of record in your DCIM.

Formats

  • Nautobot — a Nautobot 2.x bulk-import CSV bundle (nautobot-csv).
  • NetBox — a NetBox 4.x bulk-import CSV bundle (netbox-csv).
  • Railyard JSON — the canonical project document (json): the whole estate in one file, ideal for backup, diffing or feeding another tool. The exact list of targets your server offers is shown in the Export panel.

Side reports

Alongside the main bundle you can pull ready-made CSVs straight from the panel:

  • Cable schedule — every run, from your .
  • Cable labels — a label sheet for the physical install.
  • Power report — the per-rack load and capacity from .

Command line & API

The same export runs headless — the Railyard core is a Go binary you can drive from the command line (for example railyard export project.json --format nautobot-csv) or over the REST API, so exports fit into a pipeline. See .
