How to export data to Cloud Storage Providers

You can export the data to any of the supported Cloud Storage Providers. All providers work in a similar way: your organization, as tenant of the Worklytics platform, is assigned with a Google Cloud Platform (GCP) service account (SA) that will be used to export the data to the Cloud Storage Provider of your choice via Workload Identity Federation.

All providers need a series of prerequisites to be met before you can set up the connection in the Worklytics Web App: create some storage resources (such as the bucket/container where the data will be exported) to and give access to them to your Worklytics' tenant account.

Once those prerequisites are met, you can create a Data Export in the Worklytics Web App by choosing the desired dataset, configuring its settings (file format, compression, etc.), and providing the necessary information about your storage resources (e.g. bucket/container name).

The user that creates the Data Export needs to have the DataExportAdmin role. Check the Worklytics Access Control documentation for more information.

Whatever the provider you choose, we recommend creating a dedicated bucket/container for the data export and use the Terraform modules we provide to automatically provision the necessary resources, instead of creating them manually. See the detailed instructions for each provider:
