Choosing an export format
When you export a report, you can choose between CSV, Excel export formats.
The CSV format is a raw data export. All attributes are placed in rows, even if they're placed in columns or explosions in Explore. Metric and date formats aren't carried over. If there are multiple reports exported at the same time, a separate CSV file is generated and compressed into a ZIP file.
The Excel format exports your report as data in rows and columns. Visualizations and chart configurations are not preserved. If multiple reports are exported at the same time (as when you export a dashboard tab), they're placed in different tabs within the same Excel file. Excel exports are limited to 50,000 rows and 16,000 columns.
