exportEssbaseData

Exports data from an application cube (Oracle Essbase cube) to an archive. You can export just the level 0 data (ASO and BSO cubes) or all data in the cube (BSO cubes).

Use the exported archive to analyze Essbase data for patterns, for example to help improve performance.

Running a data export places the cube into read-only mode and prevents any write activity while the export operation is in progress.

Applies to

Planning, Planning Modules, FreeForm, Financial Consolidation and Close, Tax Reporting, Enterprise Profitability and Cost Management, Strategic Workforce Planning, and Sales Planning.
