Choosing which variables are available to export
- Anonymous6 years ago
Hi Allan,
Thank you for your help. I think I can see how to change the variables provided now. When I choose 'Show data point as a table', the list of variables in the provided for the records is determined by a list under the Visualisation menu. Adding the variable I want by dragging it across from the Fields menu gives me what I want.
Strangely though, the updated variable list for the visualisation is not saved so if go back to the report and choose 'Show data point as a table' again, the new variable I added to the list is not there anymore and I need to re-add it.
Hi, Anonymous
When you choose 'Export summarized data', the result will be the same as what you said. It shows you only the data (columns and measures) that are being used to create the visual. If another variable is not used in the visual, It won't appear.
Best Regards
Allan
