Exporting

DBCode Notebooks can be exported and shared in multiple formats, making it easy to collaborate with team members or present your analysis to stakeholders.

Enhanced Export Editor

Before exporting, you can enhance your notebook content using DBCode’s built-in WYSIWYG editor. This powerful editor allows you to:

• Add Rich Text: Include additional explanations, context, and formatting
• Insert Images: Add charts, diagrams, or visual assets to support your analysis
• Create Links: Link to external resources or internal sections
• Customize Layout: Drag and drop to reorder content for better flow
• Apply Themes: Choose from professional themes to match your organization’s branding
• Manage Cell Visibility: Remove cells you don’t want to include (like SQL queries) from the final export while keeping the results

The editor includes all cells from your original notebook, allowing you to selectively include or exclude content. For example, you might remove the SQL queries that produced a report while keeping the results and analysis for stakeholder presentations.

Security and Password Protection

Password protection is recommended when:

• Sensitive Data: Your notebook contains confidential business information
• Compliance Requirements: Industry regulations require data protection
• External Sharing: Sharing with clients or partners outside your organization
• Public Distribution: Distributing reports that may contain proprietary insights

Password Best Practices

• Strong Passwords: Use complex passwords with letters, numbers, and symbols
• Unique Passwords: Don’t reuse passwords from other systems
• Secure Distribution: Share passwords through secure channels separately from the exported file
