Retrieving Captured Data for Variables

You can retrieve the captured value of one or more variables over a specific time period. You can, optionally, specify a product.

Do not use this function for multiple variables unless you're sure that all variables share the exact time stamps.

If you select more than one variable, only the captured values of first variable will correspond directly to the time stamp. The captured test values for the remaining variables will simply be the first values that match the output range limit and that fall within the specified time. For example, if you select two variables (A and B), a time range of one month, and your output range allows for 12 columns of time stamps. You will get 12 captured values for Variable A that correspond to the 12 time stamps. However, the captured values for the remaining variable (B) will be only the captured values that occurred between the start time and the end time; they will not correspond with the 12 time stamps. This means that you might have anywhere from zero to 12 variables, depending on the test frequency of the second variable.

Before you perform this function, you will need to already have Variable IDs on your worksheet. For information on finding Variable IDs, please see Searching for Variables.
