Exporting historical report data to a CSV file

If, as a data governance specialist, you require a portable capture of historical metadata, you can export displayed historical report data to a comma-separated value (CSV) file.

Procedure

1. In the Historical Reporting page (Reporting > Historical), build a report for the data you want to export.

2. Click Download CSV.

   Depending on your browser and its download settings, you may be prompted to specify the destination path and filename to complete the download request.

   The default CSV filename is mdm-report-timestamp.csv, where timestamp is the date and time of the download request in the format YYYYMMDDHHMMSS.

   In the CSV file, breakdowns are represented as follows: Header rows — for example, Date, Account, Repository, etc. — are in row #2, and breakdown information — for example, Golden Record, Quarantine Entry — are in row #1.
