Features

Everything a Contentful management tool should do

Contentful export, import, backup, localization, and Excel reporting — all from one desktop app built for content operations teams.

  • Export All

    Bulk-export every content type in an environment to clean, date-stamped JSON files — a dependable Contentful backup in one click.

  • Import All

    Import a folder of JSON into any environment, with pre-flight validation and per-file selection so you import exactly what you want.

  • Add Locale

    Create new locales with an optional fallback in a couple of clicks. Contentful locale management without touching the terminal.

  • Generate Excel

    Convert an export into a multi-sheet Excel workbook, one sheet per locale, for translation review or client handoff.

  • Bundled Contentful CLI

    The official Contentful CLI ships inside the app — nothing to install, no Node.js required. A true Contentful CLI GUI.

  • Secure by design

    Your Contentful management token is encrypted by the operating system and never leaves your machine.

  • Guided workflow

    Organization → Space → Environment pickers, live logs and progress, and confirmation prompts before anything destructive.

  • Operation history

    Recent runs are saved with their settings and results, and survive restarts so you always know what changed.

  • Cross-platform

    Native builds for macOS and Windows, each with polished light and dark modes.

How it works

Three steps from install to a finished export

  1. 1

    Connect your token

    Paste your Contentful Management (CMA) token and choose an output folder. The token is encrypted by your operating system and stays on your machine.

  2. 2

    Pick your scope

    Choose the organization, space, and environment you want to work in. Every space your token can access shows up automatically.

  3. 3

    Run an operation

    Start an export, import, locale, or Excel job and watch live progress and logs until it finishes — then find it in your operation history.

Opening on macOS

On first launch, macOS may block the app because it is not notarized yet. Open System Settings → Privacy & Security and click Open Anyway next to Contentful Manager. You only need to do this once.

Or remove the quarantine flag from Terminal:

xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine "/Applications/Contentful Manager.app"
