A VA Report user cannot export data in Visual Analytics 8.5 - how to enable export data access

Hi,

A VA Report user cannot export data from Visual Analytics 8.5. How to enable export data access? Is there a specific authorization in the table level or report content level to have export data into Excel capability?

Thank you.

Hi, I'm assuming you are referring to reports opened in view mode? If you want to let users export data in view mode - the report author will have to allow that first. The ability to export data also depends on the object - not all support data export. As report author, open the report level options panel and change permissions to 'data edits' under the viewer customization section. More details are in the doc https://go.documentation.sas.com/doc/en/vacdc/8.5/vaobj/p0ff4c84fzvgifn1beckp7yubg0u.htm#n16v6t0r171dyzn1la3mx0vapjbp. Once done - the ability to export data should be available in the right-click context menu.
Hope this helps. Falko
