Accessing Export Data Request

Accessing Export Data Request Tool

To access the Export Data Request tool, users will go to the Reports portal and then select Export Data Request, found under the General section header. This will open the Export Data Request download tool where users can see exports that have been generated by their username. The export files will remain in the Export Data Request window for up to 3 days, at which point if not removed by the user there will be a nightly job that will clear the queue on their behalf. This will help maintain this list with only recent exports.


Display Fields;

  • ID: unique identifier of the file generated for exporting.
  • Type: window type where the file was generated from.
  • Description: window name where the file was generated from.
  • Expiration: date when the file will be removed from the Export Data Request list for your user.
  • Created: date the file was generated.
  • Message: error message if an error occurs while generating the file.
  • Status: current status of the file being generated (Completed, In Progress, or Error).
  • Action: actions available for the file (Download or Remove).

Footer options;

  • When exporting save file in download folder: by default the download option will save files to the browser set folder for downloaded files. However if the browser is set to a different folder and the user chooses to send the file being downloaded to the download folder the user can select this option instead of updating the browser set download folder.
  • Refresh: this will refresh the Export Data Request window including the file status.
