You can export the data from a widget to one of the following file types, depending on dashboard and widget settings. This option is available in a grid or graph; however, only the data (i.e. not the graph) will be included in Excel and comma-separated value files.
UXT file (.uxt), which can be opened in SIM. The view parameters are stored in XML format. If SIM is correctly installed on the machine where you run the UXT file, then double-clicking on the UXT file opens SIM to the exported view. Because SIM and dashboards have functionality differences, the view will be approximately the same between the two applications, but may have minor differences.
Excel (.xlsx)
Comma-separated value (.csv)
Alternatively, you can create a pdf file.

If you are exporting to Excel or a comma-separated file, you may also have the following options:
What to Export (only in widgets with multiple pages or checked rows): Choose to export rows in the current page of data, all rows in all pages, or only the checked rows (if rows are checked).
Export 2nd By Option (only if multiple Group Bys are configured): Choose whether to export rows for the 2nd By underneath members of the 1st By. Note that for performance reasons, only the first 1,000 members of the 2nd By can be exported. If you choose to export 2nd By (i.e., expanded) rows, an additional option (Include First By Subtotals) allows you to include or omit a row to show the subtotal value for each member of the 1st By. Be aware that with this option checked, the data includes duplicates and a simple totaling of a column may yield incorrect results. For example:
Include Host Code Columns: Check this option to include a column(s) for the host codes of the members. If you are exporting the 2nd By as well, this option will also include host codes for the 2nd By dimension members.
File Name: Specify the file name to use.
Click OK.
Depending on your browser, you can open the file immediately or select a location to save it. If you do not have full permissions for temporary internet files, then the open option cannot function correctly. In this case, use the appropriate option to save the file in the desired location.
