Exporting SEI 2.0 Insights
Overview
Exporting SEI 2.0 Insights allows you to download and share insights from the SEI 2.0 platform in both PDF and CSV formats. This feature is designed to facilitate the sharing of key performance metrics and insights across teams and stakeholders, enabling better decision-making and performance tracking.
- PDF Export: Provides a snapshot of the dashboard view, including all widgets and the organizational hierarchy. This is ideal for presentations and sharing insights in a read-only format.
- CSV Export: Allows you to download org-level or contributor-level data. You can select which metrics to include and whether to export team-level or individual-level productivity data. This format is suitable for further data analysis and integration with other tools.
To programmatically export productivity and efficiency widgets, see Add Export Productivity and Efficiency Metrics Using the Harness SEI API.
