Wyn Enterprise: Export a Dataset

Wyn Enterprise allows users to export the datasets as Microsoft Excel, CSV, or JSON files. By exporting a dataset, users can bring the data out of the system and make suitable changes to the raw data in the exported file based on their requirements.

Exporting a dataset also helps users to better analyze and understand the data for deeper insights. Note that all the dataset types including direct, cached, streaming, and push support data exporting.

Note: Only an admin, owner, or a user with sufficient permissions on the dataset is allowed to export the data. For more information, see these articles - Roles and Set Sharing Permissions.

To Export a Dataset

Typically, the dataset exporting process is carried out in three main steps – select the export format, enter the data parameters if any, and export the dataset.

1. On the Resource portal, select the dataset you want to export.
2. Click the More button next to the selected dataset and select Export.
   
3. In the Export dialog box that appears, choose an export format for the file. The available options are Excel, CSV, and JSON.
   
4. Once you select the export format, the next screen in the dialog box appears where you need to specify the data parameter(s) for the dataset if any. In case the dataset has no data parameter(s), this screen would not appear and the dataset gets exported to the chosen file type.
   
5. Finally, click the Export button.
   You can find the exported file in the Downloads folder of your system.

Advanced Export Settings

In the Export dialog box, you get an Advanced Settings option to set advanced export settings for the chosen export file type.

On enabling the advanced export settings, the dataset exporting becomes a process of four steps - select the export format, specify the export parameters, enter the data parameters if any, and export the dataset.

Each export format has a different set of advanced settings which can be set once you select the export format for the file.
