The video below demonstrates how to create and export customized datasets and lists using the Faculty Roster Grid. Additional FAQs are below.
See our other Grids articles to learn how to do other types of tasks, like editing faculty data and building custom visualizations.
Which version of Grids should I use for exporting data?
The Faculty Roster Grid, which is a read-only version, is the best source for pulling lists and datasets from the Grid. This feature is not available in the Editable Faculty Roster.
How do I export only certain information and not the entire Grid?
Here are a few ways to distill down to a subset of data before exporting:
Select which columns to display by clicking the "Columns" button in the top right corner and using the check boxes to select which fields you'd like to see.
Filter columns to specific values by using the funnel button at the top of the column, or by typing into the open text box at the top of the column.
Additionally, you can organize columns and rows in the desired order with these features:
Sort columns by clicking on the column header. For example, click on the 'Last name' column header to sort by last name in ascending order (A to Z). Click the header again to sort in descending order (Z to A).
Reorder columns by clicking and holding the column header, then dragging the column to the left or right.
To reset to the original view after making any of the above column changes, click the three-dot menu button at the top of any column and select 'Reset Columns'.
