1. Partial Exports/ Downloads
With any Rankings & Reputation Dataset, you can explore dashboards, reports, peer sets, and indicators directly in the platform and export what you see on screen.
This includes :
copying tables to clipboard,
downloading heatmaps as CSV files
exporting dashboards and reports as visuals (PDF, JPG, PNG)
These exports are limited to the specific view or chart you’re working with.
2. Full Data Download
With the Download License (add-on), you gain the ability to export the full datasets in CSV format for your own institution as well as the institutions in your Master Peer List. This gives your institution the flexibility to integrate Rankings & Reputation data with your own internal systems, combine it with institutional data, or run deeper offline analysis in BI tools and data warehouses.
Accessing the Download Feature
Download options are typically available via the download button in the top-right corner of relevant dashboards or reports. What you see available will depend on your license.
1. Navigate to a dataset on the platform (World University Ranking, Academic or Employer datasets).
2. Check if your subscription includes download privileges.
If eligible, the Download button will be active at the top right of your screen.
If Downloads are not included, the button will be greyed out.
If you need any changes to your download inclusions, please contact your Sales Manager.
