Exploring Your Data with Visual Insight Analyses Report Services Document Analysis Guide
• Save the data in a visualization as a CSV file, to view and interact with the
data outside of MicroStrategy Web. For example, a Graph visualization
contains a line graph that displays revenue data across several different
product categories. You can save the data in the visualization as a CSV
file, with revenue data for each product category displayed in a tabular
format. For steps, see To save the underlying data in a visualization as a
CSV file, page 163.
