# Define the Data to Export

Define the source dataset by selecting the dataset, required dimensions, and measurements and date range.

1. From the **Export** tab, select **Database Exports**.
2. Create a database export, or edit one.
3. Enter the name of the data that you’re exporting.
4. Enter a description of the data.
5. Set the date range for the data that you’re exporting. For example, set the range for the last 90 days.
6. Choose one of these options:
    
    - **Use data date**: Take all data from the defined date range. For example, all data from the last 90 days.
    - **Modified date:** Take only data that changed during the date range. If you only want the changes, use this option.
7. Select the dimensions and measurements that you’re exporting.
8. Set a filter. For example, you want to only export data from a specific campaign and not all the campaigns.
9. To move onto the next step, click **Next**.
