Crystal allows you to export your data outside Crystal.
You can download your Topics and share them with your co-workers by either sending them via mail, adding them in your own presentations, or using them as you need.
In particular, Crystal offers two options for downloading Topics.
Click on the "Download Excel" button, which you can find in the menu on the top right of the Topic Card. You will be be able to download the dataset underlying a Topic in Excel format.
In the exported Excel file, you will find:
Sheet 1, containing the information about the Topic (Topic Title, Applied Filters, Time Range)
Sheet 2, containing the data inside the Topic Chart.
Once you have it, you can share it or further analyze it autonomously.
Remember
When clicking on the "Download Excel" button for the first time, you’ll have different outcomes based on the dimensions of the Excel file you want to download:
For smaller Topics (e.g. Donut Gauge, Highlight), the download will happen instantly and you will immediately find the downloaded Excel straight from the browser (with a notification from the browser itself, if supported).
Click on the "Download PDF" button, in the menu, on the top right of the Topic Card, right under the "Download Excel" button. You will be be able to download the Topic Chart image in PDF format.
In the exported file, you will find a PDF file containing a static version of the Topic Card, including Topic Title, Key Values, Filters, and other elements of the graph, if present. In other terms, you will find a copy of the Topic Card that is not interactive.
Once you have it, you can share it or use it in external documents.

Keep sharing data!
For larger Topics (e.g. Table, Multi-Line, Scatterplot), the download will start but will take some time to conclude and you will receive a when the file is available.
