Export history helps you track all data exports to Power BI, including their status, duration, and details per table.
Open Export History (All Exports) #
Go to History in the left sidebar and open the Export history tab.
Here you can see:
- All export attempts
- Status (Success / Failed)
- Number of tables included
- Total rows exported
- Duration
- Start and end time
You can also:
- Use search to find specific data sources or tables
- Filter by:
- Status
- Ownership
- Date
View Details for a Specific Export #
Click on an export row to expand it.
You’ll see:
- Each table included in the export
- Individual table status
- Rows count and duration per table
How Export Status Works #
- If all tables are exported successfully → the export is marked as Success
- If at least one table fails → the export is marked as Failed
This helps quickly identify issues without checking each table manually.
Understanding Duration #
The total export duration may not equal the sum of individual table durations.
This is because:
- Tables can be exported in parallel
- There may be pauses or retries during export
- Power BI controls part of the execution flow
Notes on Accuracy #
Export history provides a general overview of export activity.
However:
- Power BI features like data preview can affect how exports appear in history
- Some intermediate steps may not be fully reflected
Use this page as a reference point rather than an exact performance measurement.
💡 Tips #
- Check failed exports to identify problematic tables
- Use filters to analyze exports over time
- Compare row counts to validate data completeness
