Exporting Customer Addresses

At the moment when you export a CSV for orders, it doesn't include shipping/billing addresses.

Could the API be utilised to build an add-on to achieve this?

You can export customer addresses -there's an option in on the export page.

I meant on the same export as the orders export. I have a couple of clients who have complained that when they export orders, there are no addresses on there.

I'm not sure how that would leave you with practical data file, as there are two different types of data.

Surely, it would just be a column with a text string of an address?

An address is made up of lots of fields, and an order is made up of lots of items. The file format is a 2D matrix, so it doesn't really fit.

The solution is that you can export both and they include the relationship information so you can join them in whatever software you import the data into.
