Is there a way to programmatically export an insight to xlsx and/or csv with the API? (Same result as clicking Export To… in the Analyze view)

Hello Evan, yes there is. The same functionality is exposed in our API as well. Please see https://help.gooddata.com/doc/enterprise/en/dashboards-and-insights/reports/working-with-reports/exporting-raw-report-data#ExportingRawReportData-Exportingthedata, Through the raw data export API. For more information, see API Reference.

so I found the part of the api docs for “Export an insight” but it talks about manually getting an

executionResult

uri out of the devtools network tab, which wouldn’t work for a programmatic solution. Does the

InsightView

React component have a way of grabbing this execution result or am I going to have to resort to a network interceptor?

You can get the

executionResult

URI out of of the devtools only to quickly try out the

exportResult

endpoint and see how it works.

ok

There is something like executeByReference that does exactly what you're looking for, but I can't seem to find it atm 😞

ah that looks like exactly what I wanted, thank you!

Cool! Let me know if you need anything else 🙂
