On paid Workspace plans, you can export your site’s HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and assets to back up your code, provide it to your client, or host it anywhere you like — no attribution required.
Note
\n\n Code export is only available on Workspace plans — that is, Site plans do not include the ability to export your site’s code. \n
\nImportant
\nCMS, User Accounts, Ecommerce content (databases), code components and functionality, and localized pages, elements, and content aren’t included in exported code. On exported sites, Collection lists will show the empty state, and Collection pages won’t show any content that’s bound to Collection fields. Any password protected pages on your site will no longer be protected after code export. Additionally, site search and forms (including file upload and reCAPTCHA) will not work on exported sites in order to comply with GDPR. Learn more about collecting form submissions on exported sites.
\nMinifying your HTML can help improve page load times by removing white space, comments, and other code elements browsers don’t need to load the page. To export minified HTML:

Can I choose to export only a part of my site’s code?
At the moment, you can’t choose what gets exported. Every exportable part of your site will be included in each and every export.
Can I edit the code after I export it?
You can edit the code after exporting. Keep in mind, however, that manual changes to exported files may break some Webflow components.
Can I remove the .html extensions from the URL of my exported pages?
If you want to remove the .html extensions from your exported pages, you can do so with an .htaccess file.
Do I need to provide attribution to Webflow if I host my site externally?
After exporting, you don’t need to provide attribution to Webflow or maintain a Webflow plan for your exported site to work on your own server.
Does the exported code include my CMS, Memberships, and Ecommerce content?
CMS, User Accounts, and Ecommerce content (databases) aren’t included in exported code. Collection lists will show the empty state, and Collection pages won’t show any content that’s bound to Collection fields.
Does the exported code include my localized pages, elements, and content?
Localized pages, elements, and content aren’t included in exported code. Exported code only includes the primary locale.
Will password protected pages still be protected after I export my code?
No. Any password protected pages on your site won’t be protected after code export. Your site must be hosted with Webflow in order for password protection to work as expected.
Will all elements function on my site if I host the code elsewhere?
CMS, User Accounts, Ecommerce content (databases) and functionality, and localized pages, elements, and content aren’t included in exported code. These features require hosting to function as expected. On exported sites, Collection lists will show the empty state, and Collection pages won’t show any content that’s bound to Collection fields. Any password protected pages on your site will no longer be protected after code export.
Additionally, site search and forms (including file upload and reCAPTCHA) will not work on exported sites in order to comply with GDPR. To collect form submissions, you’ll need to use a third-party tool or embed a third-party form integration. Learn more about collecting form submissions on exported sites.
Why don’t my Lottie animations work locally when I export my site?
For security reasons, Lottie JSON files won’t load from your local file system, so Lottie animations won’t appear when you load your site locally — they need a web server to work as expected.
