Exporting as CSV or Excel
Many functionalities in the portal allow you to export data, usually reports or other data that is displayed in a table.
For example:
- User accounts as described in User Accounts (Device Owners)
- Devices as described in Devices
- Installed applications
- Various reports as described in Reports
You can export tabular data either to a CSV (comma-separated values) file or as an Excel (95, 97, 2000) spreadsheet.
Once you click Export in a view or window, you are prompted with the export settings:
File format
Select the file format you wish to use.
- CSV (Comma-separated values) is a common simple table format
- Microsoft Excel is excel-specific table format.
Exporting as CSV
CSV file options are as follows:
Separator
Select the separator character used to separate values (columns) in the file
Quote character
Defines the character for quoting values in the table. Either double quotes (") or single quotes (').
Character set
Defines the character set to be used when exporting the CSV file. The default UTF-8 is the web standard, but you can choose another. UTF-8 has the widest support for international characters and some character sets may not include all the necessary characters.
Exporting as an Excel File
There are no settings for exporting as an Excel file. Simply click Select to export.
