How to view underlying data behind a visual (not export)

Hi,

I want to be able to VIEW the raw data behind a visual. I remember this doesn't work with every visual but I have forgotten how and when this works.

 

I think I used to be able to right click on the visual and see an option to view underlying data? Why doesn't this option appear in some visuals?

I remember using it for column charts but I don't see the option in my current chart?

 

Thanks

Ps I do not want to export my data.

 

I have found what I was looking for, it was the 'show data point as a table' feature - thanks for replying

 

I used to be able to right click and view the underlying data behind a visual. I've forgotten when this is allowed and why it only is allowed for certain visuals. I can't find anything in this forum that addresses this which is strange.

You can "export data" but just showing the raw data for one visual is not possible.
