How to Export GoHighLevel Membership & Course Content

A GoHighLevel membership or course isn't one thing you can export with a single click — it's public pages, gated lesson media, and member data, and each leaves the platform a different way. Here's the honest, complete method.

GoHighLevel has no single button that exports a full membership or course. The public pages, the gated video lessons, and the member records each live in a different place, so a complete move combines a few methods. You can export the public-facing pages (sales and course landing pages) as clean static HTML with ExportGHL Sites, recover your original lesson media (the videos, PDFs, and audio you uploaded) from source, and pull your member records through GoHighLevel's native CSV export. ExportGHL Sites captures the rendered front end — it does not pull login-gated lessons, hosted video files, or CRM data — so this guide walks the full, honest workflow end to end.

Planning a bigger move? This pairs well with our complete GoHighLevel migration guide and our walkthrough on exporting a GoHighLevel website to static HTML.

The front-end exporter here is ExportGHL Sites. It snapshots the pages that render publicly; it does not log in to your member area or download gated lesson content. We're clear about that below so you can plan the rest of the move.

What "Exporting a GoHighLevel Course" Really Means

The reason there's no one-click export is that a GoHighLevel course is really three separate things stitched together. Treating them as one is where migrations go wrong. Break your course into these layers before you start:

  • Public-facing pages — your sales page, course landing page, opt-in pages, and any marketing pages that render without a login. These are front-end HTML and assets, and they're the part ExportGHL Sites captures cleanly.
  • Gated lesson media — the actual teaching content: video lessons, downloadable PDFs, worksheets, and audio. This sits behind a member login, and video is typically streamed from a hosting layer rather than served as a plain file, so it is not something a page snapshot can reliably pull.
  • Member and structural data — who is enrolled, their progress, and the course's own structure (module and lesson order, drip schedule, access rules). This is back-end data and configuration, not front-end markup.

Each layer has its own correct export route. The rest of this guide handles them in order.

Can You Export GoHighLevel Course Content Directly?

Not as a single file, no. GoHighLevel's Memberships product keeps lesson content behind a login and keeps the course structure and member data in its back end, and — like most SaaS platforms — it doesn't offer a one-click "export my whole course" download. What it does offer is a native CSV export for your contacts and members, which is the right tool for the people side of the move.

Everything else you assemble yourself from pieces you already own: the public pages (via a rendered exporter), the lesson media (your original source files), and the structure (documented by hand). Assuming the content is yours to move, none of this needs special permission — though if your account is managed by an agency, it's worth confirming who controls it before you start. It does mean using the right method for each layer instead of hunting for a button that doesn't exist.

A quick honesty note on retention: GoHighLevel's terms around data retention, deletion, and ownership can vary by plan and by your agency arrangement, and they change over time. Check your current GoHighLevel or agency agreement rather than assuming — and do your exports while the account is still active, not after you cancel.

Step-by-Step: How to Export Membership & Course Content

Step 1: Separate the three layers

Before touching any tool, list what you're moving under the three headings above — public pages, gated media, and member/structural data. A simple spreadsheet works: one tab for the pages to snapshot, one for every lesson's source files, and one for the module and lesson order. This list is your migration map, and it keeps you from assuming a single export captured everything.

Step 2: Export the public-facing pages as static HTML

Add the ExportGHL Sites Chrome extension from the Chrome Web Store and pin it. Open each public page — your sales page, course landing page, and opt-ins — then open the extension, enter your email, enable Rendered snapshot mode, and export. You'll get clean static HTML, CSS, and JS with localized assets for every page that renders without a login. (Pages that require a member login won't render for the exporter, which is expected — those are handled in the next steps.)

Step 3: Recover your original lesson media

The teaching content moves by re-gathering the source files you uploaded, not by scraping the player. Collect the original video, PDF, audio, and worksheet files from your own storage — your Drive, your computer, or wherever you kept the masters before uploading. If you no longer have the originals, download each asset from where it's hosted while you still have access. Keep them named and organized to match your course structure so re-uploading later is straightforward.

Step 4: Export your members and their data

Use GoHighLevel's native CSV export in the contacts area of your account to pull member and contact records. This is the only correct route for people data — ExportGHL does not read, touch, or export CRM records of any kind. Export the full contact list plus any tags or custom fields that mark enrollment, so you can re-segment members on the new platform.

Step 5: Document the course structure

Record the module and lesson order, the drip schedule, and any access or membership-tier rules in your spreadsheet. This structure is back-end configuration that no front-end export preserves, so writing it down now is what lets you rebuild the course faithfully rather than from memory.

Step 6: Rebuild on your new platform

Put the pieces back together on your destination: host the exported static pages, upload your recovered media into a course or membership platform in the order you documented, and import the member CSV. Then reconnect the server-side parts — logins, protected access, drip, and payments — using the new platform's own features or standard embeds, since those did not come across in the static export.

Start with the easy win. Export one of your public course or sales pages free to see the clean static output before you commit. Start a free 1-page trial.

What ExportGHL Sites Can and Cannot Capture

Being precise here saves you a frustrating migration. ExportGHL Sites works by loading a page in the browser, letting all the JavaScript and dynamic layout finish, and saving the final rendered result as static HTML, CSS, and JS with its assets.

It captures: any page that renders publicly — sales pages, course landing pages, opt-in and marketing pages — with their images, fonts, and styling localized and ready to host.

It does not capture: content behind a member login, hosted/streamed video files, your CRM contacts and member records, back-end course structure (module and lesson configuration, drip rules), or live form submissions. Those each leave GoHighLevel a different way, as covered in the steps above. If a membership plugin or part of your journey is server-side, plan to reconnect it after export — our guide to reconnecting forms and calendars covers the pattern.

How to Recover Your Course Videos & Lesson Media

Because video and gated lessons aren't something a page snapshot can reliably pull, treat your media as source assets you repossess rather than export:

  • Start from your masters. The cleanest path is the original files you uploaded. If they're on your computer or in cloud storage, you already have your lesson library — just organize it by module.
  • If the masters are gone, retrieve each asset from where it's currently hosted while you still have account access. Downloadable PDFs and audio are usually straightforward; streamed video depends on where it lives and the access you have.
  • Keep structure in the filenames. Name files like module-2_lesson-3_title.mp4 so that when you re-upload to the new platform, the order and grouping are obvious and fast to rebuild.

This keeps the heavy teaching content under your control and independent of any single platform going forward.

How to Export Your Members & Their Data

Member and contact data is the one layer GoHighLevel exports for you, and it's important to use that route rather than looking for a workaround. In the contacts area of your account, use GoHighLevel's native CSV export to download your contact records, including the tags or custom fields you use to mark course enrollment or tiers.

To be unambiguous: ExportGHL never reads or exports CRM data — it only exports rendered front-end pages. Contacts, members, and their fields leave GoHighLevel exclusively through GoHighLevel's own export. Keep that CSV safe; it's what lets you re-enroll the right people on your new platform without anyone losing access.

Rebuilding Your Course on a New Platform

With the three layers in hand, the rebuild is mostly assembly. Host the exported static pages anywhere that serves plain HTML — see our self-hosting tutorial — and point your sales and landing pages there. Upload your recovered media into a course or membership tool (a WordPress membership plugin, Teachable, Kajabi, or similar), recreating the module and lesson order from your documentation. Finally, import your member CSV and set up logins, drip, and payments using the new platform's native features.

The result: your front-end look is preserved exactly, your lessons live as files you own, and your members come across cleanly — with no dependence on any one platform keeping your business running. If you're also moving automations, clone them across accounts with ExportGHL Workflows.

Frequently asked questions

Can I export my GoHighLevel course content?
There is no single button that exports a whole GoHighLevel course. You export it in parts: the public pages as static HTML with a tool like ExportGHL Sites, your original lesson media (videos, PDFs, audio) recovered from source, and your members through GoHighLevel's native CSV export. Combined, those parts give you everything you own; no one tool does all three.
Does ExportGHL export course videos and gated lessons?
No. ExportGHL Sites captures the rendered front end — the HTML, CSS, JS, and assets of pages as they display. It does not log in to a member area, does not pull lesson content gated behind a login, and does not download hosted video files. To move your lessons, recover the original media files you uploaded.
How do I get my members or contacts out of GoHighLevel?
Member and contact records leave GoHighLevel through GoHighLevel's own native CSV export, found in the contacts area of your account. ExportGHL does not read or export CRM data of any kind — it only exports rendered front-end pages — so the native CSV is the correct route for people data.
Does GoHighLevel delete my course content if I cancel?
GoHighLevel's terms and data-retention practices can change and vary by plan and agency arrangement, so check your current GoHighLevel or agency agreement rather than relying on a fixed rule. The safe approach is to assume access ends when the account lapses and to export your pages, recover your media, and pull your member CSV while the account is active.
Can I move my GoHighLevel membership site to another platform?
Yes, with a rebuild. Export the public pages as static HTML, recover your lesson media, export members as CSV, and document your module and lesson structure. Then host the pages and upload the media into a course platform such as a membership plugin, Teachable, or Kajabi, importing your member list and recreating the structure you recorded.
Will my exported course pages keep working logins and drip scheduling?
No. Exported pages are static, so member logins, protected access, drip scheduling, and payment widgets are server-side features that do not carry over. You reconnect them on the new platform using its membership and payment features, or standard embeds. The export preserves the look and front-end content, not the back-end logic.
Is it free to try exporting my GoHighLevel pages?
Yes — ExportGHL Sites includes a free single-page trial, so you can export one of your public course or sales pages and check the static output before choosing a plan.
