Data can only be exported from SQL Editor. Which export path is available depends on two settings:

Direct export

With Enable data export on (Settings > General, the workspace default), anyone who can run a query can click Export on the result to download it — exporting is not a separate permission. See Export data for how Export behaves.

Just-in-time data export

To put every export behind an approval, a Workspace Admin turns off Enable data export; members can then no longer export directly. As long as Just-In-Time access is enabled on the project, they can still export through the access grant mechanism:
  1. Check Export in the access grant request. request-data-export
  2. The approver sees on the request issue that the grant allows exporting the result. export-request-issue
  3. Once approved, run the approved statement and export its result before the grant expires.
Every data-export request — pending, active, or expired — stays visible in the Just-In-Time Access list on the SQL Editor left sidebar (the shield icon). Add the export filter (export: Yes) to narrow the list to export grants; an expired grant can be re-requested from there. export-grant-list
