Mass export of artboards from several open psd files at once

Hi, I am searching for a way or perhaps a script to enable me to export all artboards from several open PSD files at once (and not individually for each single PSD). Does anyone know if such a script exits and where I can find it?

Some scripts can be recorded into an action and the script parameters are also recorded for uninterrupted batch playback on all open files. Perhaps the Artboards to files script can be recorded into such a fashion, I've never tried.

I'll need to have a dig around my archive and see if I have such a script or if one can be easily modified without requiring a total rewrite.

It's generally more efficient to batch a folder of files one at a time than to batch all open files which chew up memory.

What is the save format?

What about naming? Filename + Artboard name? Are all unique or is there a possibility of the same names being used?

Thanks in advance for your efforts.

That is right and would also work. My point is to be able to do the export for dozens of generated photoshop files in one step at a time to automate production of ad variants of a campaign.

Thanks for clarifying.

EDIT: As a proof of concept, I have tested my "Artboards-to-WEBP-PS2025-v2.jsx" script, removing all interactive features (prompts, alerts etc.) so that it is suitable for "headless" operation when recorded into an Action and run via File > Automate > Batch... and it works great! But if you don't want WebP, then I need to know the format

Hi Stephen, thank you for the reply. Output-Formt should be JPG and ideally we can export the artboards with their name (and perhaps the artboards of each PSD in a single Assets-folder)
