HTML tags (div, p, br, and so on) are supported in new line formatting when you export a report to Excel.
While exporting a report to an Excel file, the filters applied to the reports are also exported.
Export of filters is supported only for Report Builder and Dashboards.
Filters are not exported when you export a report from the Report drill-down.

Notes:

Export as CSV will be available only when tabular visualization is enabled.

Limitations

Export to CSV option in a report exports up to 100K records only.
Email servers typically have an attachment file size limit (Gmail 25 MB, Outlook 20 MB) because of which the capabilities of Export to CSV is also limited.
Gainsight recommends to use Export to S3 from Bionic Rules, if the records in your report exceeds 100K records.
Row grouping is not supported in CSV exports.

Email/Export Dashboard to Gainsight users

You can email dashboards to Gainsight users in your organization as a powerpoint presentation (PPT) using the EXPORT option available on the Gainsight Home page.

Notes:

If the current user has configured report visualization types or local filters, they are respected in the PPT version of the dashboard. Global filters are also respected.
If the dashboard contains tabular reports, approximately 10 rows of data will display per slide for that report.

To email a Gainsight Dashboard:

Click EXPORT. The Email Dashboard as Powerpoint window appears.
Enter the email of the internal Gainsight recipient, subject of the email, and an optional message for the recipient.
Click SEND NOW. The email is sent to the email ID's specified.
(Optional) Click SEND TEST EMAIL. The Gainsight Dashboard is sent to the logged-in user for verification.

Once the export is completed, as a logged-in user, you will receive an email with the PowerPoint attached. You can open the exported dashboard in Microsoft PowerPoint. However, Google Slides and Apple Keynote files may work, but something in the PPT might break.
