<!-- Answer --> Exporting as an image captures exactly what you see in the browser, including any client-side filters like the search box. In contrast, exporting to Excel/CSV sends a request to the backend, which by default does not know about client-side filters—so the export includes all rows unless server-side pagination is enabled and the filter is sent to the backend. The difference between "Export to Excel" and "Export to full Excel" is about scope: "Export" typically exports just the currently paginated (visible) data, while "Export to full" exports the entire dataset. However, neither option applies the search box filter unless server-side pagination is enabled and the filter is passed to the backend. This is a limitation of how Superset currently handles exports and is not explicitly documented in the UI or code comments—it's inferred from how export requests are processed on the backend and how pagination is handled in the frontend [[discussion](https://github.com/apache/superset/discussions/31467)]. <!-- Dosu Comment Footer --> *To reply, just mention [@dosu](https://go.dosu.dev/dosubot).* --- <sup>How did I do?
