You can export search results from DME, including metadata, to a comma-separated values (CSV) file.
To export search results:
- Perform a search for data, as described in Searching for Data via the GUI. If you want the export to include metadata, select the Detailed results option. The search results page appears.
- Specify the number of records you want to export, by selecting a value from the items per page list.
- If you want to export a subset of the rows on the current page: In the selection column, select each collection or data file you want to export.
- In the upper-right corner of the results table, click the menu icon.
- Select one or more options from the menu, as follows:
- If you want to include all columns (except the action columns, Download and Permission) and all rows in the export, select Export all data as csv.
- If you want to omit some columns from the export:
- Under Columns, click the name of each column you want to omit. An X appears next to that column name. (If you change your mind, click the column name again. A check mark appears next to that column name.)
- Select Export visible data as csv.
- If you want to export only the selected rows, select Export selected data as csv.
The system exports the data from only the current page of results to a CSV file. For example, if the current page lists 50 records out of 100 total results, the system exports only 50 records.
