In some cases, the output of a project is not a dashboard or a report, but a dataset itself. In addition to being able to download a DSS dataset as a CSV file (and other formats) or export it to another DSS project, you can also find plugins that make it easy to share datasets with external software tools.

For example, DSS has plugins that make it easy to export DSS datasets to visualization and business intelligence platforms like Qlik, PowerBI, and Tableau.

Here, with the Microsoft Power BI plugin, we see the option to export a DSS dataset to Power BI using credentials or an access token.
