Data Exports

Leverage Visier metrics and data outside of the solution with Data Exports.

Overview

Visier Data Exports allow you to access Visier metrics and data from outside Visier so that you can embed it in portals, perform additional analysis in other BI tools solutions, such as Excel or Tableau, or feed data and metrics to another data store. Data Exports can be used to access cleansed record level data (for example, cleansed employee or exit event data) as well as pre-calculated metric values (for example, Headcount, Voluntary Turnover, and Total Cost of Workforce).

There are two types of Data Exports to chose from:

• Aggregated Data Export: Retrieve data containing metric values. For example, Headcount and Resignation Rate.
• Detailed Data Export: Retrieve data containing attribute values for individual subjects (such as employees, candidates, and requisitions) and events (such as starts, exits, and pay changes).

You can configure your Data Exports to show data for a fixed point in time or the latest time period.

Data Exports are versioned or unversioned. Administrators can create a versioned Data Export in a project and publish it to all users with Data Export access. Alternatively, unversioned Data Exports are created in the solution experience and can be shared with individual users and user groups. For more information, see Create a Data Export.

Manage Data Exports

In the solution experience, the Data Exports room is where you can create and manage your Data Exports.

In Data Exports, you'll find a list of the Data Exports you can access, as shown in the following screenshot.

1. Search: Find a Data Export by typing the Data Export name, description, or the owner's name.
2. Data Export switch: Click the check box to turn on or turn off the Data Export endpoint. If turned off, users cannot access this Data Export using the Data Export link. For more information, see Generate a Data Export Link.
3. List view options: Switch between the tabs to view a list of all Data Exports you have access to, Data Exports that are owned by you, Data Exports that have been shared with you, and Data Exports that are published to production.
4. New Data Export: Create a new Data Export from scratch. For more information, see Create a Data Export.
5. Quick Actions toolbar: Hover over a Data Export to reveal options to copy the Data Export link and share, download, edit, duplicate, and delete the Data Export.

To access Data Exports, on the navigation bar, click Data Exports .

How data security works with Data Exports

In order to fetch data using a Data Export link, users will be required to authenticate by entering their username and password. A user's security access will be enforced when they consume a Data Export. This means users will have the same level of access to data inside and outside of the solution.
