Exporter ​

Exporter produces data files. It's the tool for extracts too large for the screen — many metrics at once, long periods, fine intervals — and it runs them in the background so you don't sit waiting.

Find it under Tools → Exporter.

The export builder

Building an export ​

The query controls are the four that describe any question of the data: date range, audience, filters and breakdown.

The row underneath is where they differ:

ControlWhat it does
MetricsWhich metrics become columns — a multi-select, with search and All
Sort byThe metric the file is ordered by
IntervalTotal, or split over time
ExportQueues the export

Metrics is the field to notice: an export can carry as many metric columns as you need in one file.

The preview ​

Export preview shows the shape of the file — its columns and how rows will be laid out — using placeholder values rather than real ones. It's there to confirm the structure before you commit, so check the columns are the ones you want, then export.

History ​

The History tab lists what you've queued, filtered by state: All, In progress, Completed, Failed and Cancelled. Completed exports are collected here to download, and it's also where a failed export tells you it failed.

Because exports run in the background, you can start one and carry on working — or close the dashboard and collect it later.

Exports you've generated are also reachable from Exports in the account menu.
