Metabase: The CSV download for a pivot table should be pivoted

Created on 29 Apr 2016  路  3Comments  路  Source: metabase/metabase

  • I am using the Chrome browser.
  • My computer's OS is Mac OSX.
  • My Metabase version is v0.17.0

Currently if you run a query which displays a pivoted table of data in the browser then go to download the file you get a different set of results. This is confusing and inconsistent for users. If a table is going to be pivoted it should be that way in the CSV as well.

Even better, there should be an option when exporting a pivot table to CSV allowing to choose raw or pivoted data before exporting.

Now that we support arbitrary column selections and reordering it should probably also match that.

Also an issue when exporting XLSX. This, combined with #7902, makes it difficult to use Metabase for creating the reports we need.
