A CSV (Comma Separated Values) file is the default file format for importing and exporting data between various applications. The default file extension for a Google spreadsheet is .gsheet.

1 – Open your Google spreadsheet

Either from Google Drive or Google Sheets, double-click on the file you wish to open.

2 – Download the file as a CSV
