Which item does the 'Export Data' window not ask us to provide?

When you export data, you’re deciding three practical things: where to save it, which features to include, and what coordinate system to apply. The dialog typically gives you an output location, a way to pick which features to export (all features, selected features, or a subset), and the coordinate system to use for the exported data. The format isn’t requested in this window because the export format is usually determined by the file type you choose for the output (for example, by the file extension or by a separate setting outside this dialog). In other words, you pick the destination and the data content here, and the actual file format is implied by the chosen output type or handled elsewhere. So, the item not asked for in this window is the file format.
