How to customize your Data Table?

You can tailor the data table to display exactly the information you need by using the Configure Table panel. Click the Configure Table button in the top right corner of the interface to open the configuration panel.

Configure Table button in the bottom-right that opens the table configuration panel.

With the Configure Table panel you can:

  1. Add or remove columns:
    • Add Dimensions:
      Check the boxes next to the data fields (dimensions) you wish to display in your table, such as Country / Region, Edition Start Date, Learner Email, etc.
    • Add Measures:
      Under the Add Measures section, select relevant measures, such as Learners
  2. Control Selection:
    • Use Select All, Clear All or Reset at the top for quick selection management.
    • When you select a dimension or measure, it is added to the table in the order you check them. The sequence of your selections determines the order of columns in your resulting table. To change the column order, simply uncheck and reselect fields in your preferred order.

  3. Apply Your Choices:
    Press the Apply button to update the table view, reflecting your dimensions and measures selection.

Tip

The flexibility in column selection and ordering allows you to create a personalized, efficient table view for your current analysis or export needs, and can also be bookmarked for future reference.

Note

To ensure performance, the on-screen table is limited to 500 rows and 60 columns at a time. However, these limits do not affect exported data.

How to export data?

When you are ready to extract your data:

  • Click the Export Current View button at the upper right. This will download all rows and columns that match your filter selection, not just what is visible on your screen.
  • The export provides the dataset with the visible selection for dimensions and measures in a csv file format.

For quick access to commonly needed datasets, predefined exports are available in the Certifications view. These use preset filters and column structure, regardless of the filters you have applied on the table:

  • Learners without UID Export:
    Displays learners with a Certification Exam Result of “Passed” and Compliant UID= “No”. Use this to identify individuals who still need to complete UID registration.
  • Valid Certificates Export:
    Shows only active certificates, filtered by Certification Exam Result= “Passed”, Certificate Status= “Active”, and excludesDeleted” S-user accounts. Use this export to top-line valid certification records.

How to bookmark?

  • Filter states:
    All applied filter values.
  • Table structure:
