Exporting your form to Excel 

 

We highly recommend using the “Export to CSV” function. Other options can be problematic because the data will not display properly. 

 

To export your survey to excel, go to your SharePoint list and select “Export” then “Export to CSV.” Power BI is currently not supported on GCXchange.

Other way you can find them is by selecting “Ellipses” if you check off Show in site Navigation
