Free Viewer: Export data from free Viewer?

kikorw · October 16, 2012 1:31PM

I understand no data export is possible from an Omniscope free Viewer only license, correct me if I'm wrong. I'm interested in sharing Omniscope data visualization files with some team members. I already set up a nice dashboard file for them. Now they emphasize that it will NOT be useful as long as they CAN'T download/export the data they're looking at. Is there an alternate method that could make this a useful tool for them?

Summary: I share an .IOK file with end users with a free Viewer only license, how could they export data from the .IOK?

Francisco - Yes, this is a standard feature of an Omiscope Server license. Omniscope IOK files saved as 'owned' by Server licenses enable additional options/actions when opened in the free Viewer. One of these additional free Viewer enabled options is the ability to export the data from the IOK file as .csv or xls(x).

FYI Francisco, you can still copy and paste from Table and Pivot views to Excel or wherever, if that helps

Alec - Yes, that is correct, but only if the Publisher/owner has chosen NOT to lock the file, which is an anti-copy file security protection option for data publishers.

Welcome!
