This feature has to be turned on by a Workspace Admin.
Turn On the Underlying Data Feature
To turn on this feature for your workspace...

Select Feature Access.
Turn on the toggle next to Underlying Data.
Now, dataset owners can allow users to preview and download the underlying raw data for a specific insight on a per dataset level.
The dataset owner can also disable this feature for a dataset. Then users can’t preview or download the underlying data. Users can't download the entire dataset even if preview and download are enabled. It is only a subset of data tied to a specific insight.

FAQ for Users
What are the limitations?
Preview: 1,000 rows
Download 1 CSV: 100,000 rows and 50 columns
Download 2 CSVs: 50,000 rows and 50 columns each
What about when a user has a custom measure, count, or average selected?
AAI still shows the underlying data but will display a warning message that those measures are not 1:1 displayed in the raw data as they require additional calculation on top of the raw data. AAI performs those calculations upon ingestion of data.
What happens when the data comes from 2 different datasets (for example, Common Causes)?
Upon download, you will receive 2 CSV files, each containing a maximum of 50,000 rows. In the preview, you will see two tables.
Does this work for goals (target) datasets?
No. You can't preview or download the underlying data for goals (target) datasets.
Is a disabled column visible for preview or download?
If the dataset owner disabled a column during ingestion, it is not visible for preview or download.
