Downloading Widgets to CSV

You can export widgets in CSV format.

Only the displayed (filtered) data is exported, according to the currently selected filters.

To export a widget to a CSV file:

  • In Dashboard mode, click the widget's menu, and select Download > CSV File.
  • In Edit widget mode, click the download icon, and select Download CSV.

Number Formatting in CSV Downloads

CSV downloads can preserve the number formatting, such as decimal places and the thousands separator, as defined in the Format Number configuration.

To enable (to be done by an Admin): click the Admin tab > System Management (under Server & Hardware) > Configuration (top-right corner) > Exporting section > and toggle on Formatted CSV Exporting.

Settings that will be preserved when exporting to CSV:

  • Decimal Places - When the number of digits is explicitly specified

  • Thousands separator – Separated or not

Settings that will not be preserved when exporting:

  • Decimal Places - When set to ‘Automatic’

  • Abbreviations

  • Currency

  • Percent

Localization

The number format settings define only the number of digits after the decimal point, and whether the thousands separator is used or not.

The use of specific separators (comma, dot, space) is determined based on the browser locale on the user's machine.
