Download interactive relational data sets
Within a dashboard, some tiles may be set up to be interactive. This means that by clicking on the data, a popup window will appear to reveal a data set related to that value.
- To download this relational data set, click on the ‘Download’ option in the top right of the popup window.
-
A popup will appear and the default format will be ‘CSV‘ (see note below)
-
Select ‘Advanced data options’
-
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 data set to include any rows past the defaulted 500 visible in the interface
- Click ‘Download’ to download your results (Note: once you click ‘Download’, depending on the size of the data being extracted, you won’t necessarily see your browser doing anything for a few minutes. Once the data has been extracted, you’ll see your browser update the ‘download’ icon typically found in the top right of your browser. This is a limitation of the Looker application that VitalSource is not able to alter at this time.)
