Exporting a Premier timeline as separate clips retaining edits

I have a short video edited in Premier.  I want to separate it into individual clips while retaining my edits. I have read past posts and not finding the answer.  I read that Divinci has the export function, so am thinking that Premier must have the capability?

    If you open a clip from the timeline in the source monitor it has the in and ooutpoint set. Now you can make a subcip of this clip which will be saved in the project window.

    Select all subclips in the project window > export

     

    You can export from the timeline but that means setting in and outpoint over a clip then exporting the timeline (source in to out). Need to do that for every clip.

    Thanks.  Do you mean just separating the clips on the timeline?  Wouldn't that still export as a single file ?

    Make subclips of your edits then export those from the project panel.
