# How to Export Data

> Get the numbers out into a spreadsheet.

**Question**: "How do I get this into a spreadsheet?"

Every data-bearing tile can export to CSV. A metric tile can also copy its value to your clipboard for a single number.

## Export a Tile to CSV

1. Click the three-dot menu in the top corner of the tile.
2. Click **Export CSV**.

A CSV downloads with the data behind the tile.

## What's in the CSV

Depends on the tile type.

### Metric Tile

A single row with the metric name, value, and the comparison value if one is set.

### Chart Tile

One row per data point. Columns cover each metric plotted. If the chart has a breakdown, one row per combination of time bucket and breakdown value.

### Table Tile

Exactly what you see on screen. One row per table row, one column per metric. If the table has a breakdown, the breakdown value is the first column.

### Markdown Tile

Markdown tiles cannot be exported. There's no data behind them, so the menu hides the Export CSV option.

## Copy a Single Value

For metric tiles specifically, there's a shortcut that skips the CSV step:

1. Open the tile menu.
2. Click **Copy value**.

The number goes to your clipboard in a format that pastes cleanly into text, email, or a spreadsheet cell.

## Filters and Comparisons Carry Over

The CSV reflects the tile as you see it:

* The dashboard's time period and market filter are applied.
* If the tile has a comparison, the comparison values are included as extra columns.
* If the tile has a breakdown, each breakdown value appears as its own row or group of rows.

## What You Cannot Export

There is no "export the whole dashboard" action. Export each tile separately.
