Convert FDI Workbook Tables into Datasets

Matt_B

What is the most direct way to convert a table that a user has created within a workbook into a standalone dataset? I understand the table visualization can exported to csv/excel and uploaded via 'Create Dataset' - however, a method to complete this entirely within FDI is preferred. I am exploring Data Actions, but each way of passing the values only limits the measures/attributes contained within another dataset (and does not create a new unique dataset, which solely contains the original table's fields). Any insights/recommendations are appreciated.

If you are using FDI for ERP Analytics, have you looked into Configurable Account Analysis?
The feature isn't directly intended for the use you mentioned above, but perhaps it could check the boxes of what you're trying to accomplish:

@Jamie Anderson-Oracle thanks for the additional info; I will explore this further. For reference, I added a discussion with some additional context on use-cases this could apply to:
