Currently the data-export option is hidden in an invisible ellipsis. One needs to know where that invisible ellipsis is, then they need to hover over it, then they can click it, and finally they can see that this is where they can choose the "Export" option. In my experience, exporting data is a pretty common task, so I don't understand why you go to such great lengths to make it difficult to find.

RE: Make the data export buttons VISIBLE
It's definetely a great idea and we would like to see it implemented as soon as possible.
Customers find really difficult to use the drop down menu and would like to have a specific export function button.
RE: Make the data export buttons VISIBLE
OMG! Please please please! The (...) is NOT intuitive AT ALL to many end users. Why make this so difficult!?
RE: Make the data export buttons VISIBLE
Yes! Please implement this as an available button to insert. This is a common request and seems a simple feature to add.
RE: Make the data export buttons VISIBLE
Please make this a feature
RE: Make the data export buttons VISIBLE
Getting requests for this functionality on a weekly basis. Would be great to have a button tied to a table/visual and if you click it, it exports the data to Excel
RE: Make the data export buttons VISIBLE
Yes please can we make a button to 'export data'. This would save so much confusion and time training.
RE: Make the data export buttons VISIBLE
My end users export data we make for them in Power BI daily. It would be nice if I could just add a Blank Button and assign an export data action to it. Please consider this. The hidden ellipses in the visual header is not easy to find for new and even seasoned users. Depending on how tight the report author stacks visuals a visual header from another visual could be prompted and frustrate the user even more.
I just want to be able to make a big shiny button that says "Export "----" data"
RE: Make the data export buttons VISIBLE
This is a HUGE want for my team! Please consider this in a coming update! At least the ability to create a button to do this...

There are lots of similar/related ones on this forum, which suggests more people would like this :

Is there any news? Could we merge all these requests so it gets more traction?
RE: Make the data export buttons VISIBLE
Yes, I am also concerned about this, exporting data from the report for the end users is not so user friendly. I think Power BI should have that features of adding button to export the data.
