# Exporting Data

This section will walk you through exporting metric or test data, for use with external analytics tools.

## Data Exports

Navigate to **Connected Devices > Data Export**. On this page you'll see the **Export Builder** on the left.

You can export:

* Aggregated Metric Data, which is the same kind of data export you’d get if you exported a line chart as a CSV file in that it will include data such as the average speed for each data point (e.g. hour).
* Raw Metric Data, which is still pre-processed using prefiltering rules and other filters/splits, and allows you to use our derived metrics.
* Raw Test Data, which is the underlying exact same data that the test clients on agents report back to us and we use to build other metrics.

### Aggregated Metric Data

1. Click the “Build with Aggregated Metric Data” button.
2. The following fields appear.

3. Select the chart settings you want to export. For more information about how to use each chart setting, see [Configuring Charts](https://docs.thousandeyes.com/product-documentation/connected-devices/usage-guides/configuring-charts).
4. Click **Download** to download a CSV in your browser, or, click **Generate** to generate a cURL or JSON API request example on the right that can be run in a terminal or used in internal automated processes and scripts within your organization.

   * When generating a request example, you must type or paste in the API token required for the API. See [Accessing Your APIs](https://docs.thousandeyes.com/product-documentation/connected-devices/usage-guides/accessing-your-apis) for more information.
