Downloading Data Sets

Each report or dashboard is made up of ‘tiles’. For reports, there is typically only one tile – the data set.

  • Within a report or dashboard, hover over the report field headers towards the top right-hand corner. You will see three dots (when you hover, it will say ‘Tile actions’); click these, then select ‘Download data’image-20250114-214617.png
    • A pop-up will appear and the default format will be ‘CSV’ (see note below).

    • Select ‘Advanced data options’.image-20250114-213129.png

    • DO NOT change the settings under ‘Results’ or ‘Data values’; otherwise, you may corrupt the data export.

    • Under ‘Number of rows to include’, select ‘All results’ to export the entire data set, including any rows beyond the default limit of 500 visible in the interface.image-20250214-143850.png

    • Click ‘Download’ to download your results. (Note: once you click ‘Download’, depending on the size of the data being extracted, you will not necessarily see your browser react for a few minutes. Once the data has been extracted, you will see your browser update the ‘download’ icon, typically found in the top-right of your browser window. This is a limitation of the Looker application that VitalSource is not able to alter at this time.)
