Export a Visualization

You can export visualizations in a variety of formats to view, store, and share with others.

You can specify the following output options when you export a visualization:

  • For Powerpoint (pptx), PDF, and Image (png) — Specify the file name, paper size, and orientation.

    When you share any of these visual formats, the visualization is re-rendered based on the size and orientation you select. So if you're sharing a table, then your output file might not contain all of the table's rows and columns displayed in your visualization.

    When you export to PDF format, you can optionally specify a password to protect the PDF file.

  • For Data (csv) — Specify the output file name. This option only includes the data used in the workbook. The output file uses the data delimiter for your computer's locale. For example, if your locale is set to Brazil, then the delimiter for numeric decimals is a comma instead of a period, which is used when your locale is set to United States.
  • For Excel (xlsx) — Specify the output file name for table and pivot table data. Oracle Analytics exports data and time values exactly as they appear in the data source. Oracle Analytics applies no time zone conversions during export, for example, time zone system settings or the user's time zone settings.
  • For Package (dva) — Specify whether to include workbook data and connection credentials. To export the workbook as a self-contained file with data, connection details, and permissions, choose File from the export options, then select Package (dva) in the Format field. To password-protect the file, specify a password in the Protect Password fields.
