Data Explorer
The Data Explorer provides a simple, intuitive way to navigate the relationships between our data tables and to search and use data objects on reports, without the need for a robust understanding of SQL.
To make building reports and analyzing data intuitive, each data object is presented in a way that clearly shows its relationship to joined data. Clients can use Data Explorer to analyze data, to export simple CSV files or PDFs, or to export data and create more complex reports.
The Data Explorer must first be enabled before use.
