Method 1 - Export As:

  1. Open your Illustrator project file
  2. From the top menu, select File > Export > Export As
  3. From the Export As popup window, choose the PNG file format from the Format drop-down menu, and select "Use Artboards" to export the full artboard size
  4. Click the Export button
