Export Request
Overview
The Workflow feature simplifies the processing of requesting data exports, particularly when you lack export permissions or require approval. Upon approval by the designated approver, the executor can proceed to export the approved data once.
Export Request

type.The Create export request page will be displayed.
Select Approval Rule

Workflow > Submit Request > Export Request > Approval Rule
At the top of the Export Request page, select an Approval Rule to govern the approval process.
If you select
Default (No Rule)
, users can choose their own approvers.Approvers can be automatically added to the Approvers field when an admin selects a preset approval rule.
Add Approvers
Approvers can be added directly by the requester based on the approval rules set up by the admin. Click the + button in the box, and a popup will appear allowing you to add an approver.
If you've selected a approval rule that doesn't allow the requester to select an approver themselves, then the + button won't appear, and the box will be grayed out, indicating it cannot be clicked. In this case, the name of the approver set by the admin is automatically displayed.
