How do I get an overview of my variables and option groups in EDC/CDMS?
Tables containing the list of variables and option groups are included when exporting study data.
To export data, navigate to the 'Participants' tab and click on the 'Actions' button → ‘Export all’.
In the 'Export type' dropdown menu select Excel or CSV, then select the relevant study section from the available data and click on the ‘Export’ button.
This is possible to do even if there is no participant data in the study - all variable and option group information will be exported as a separate sheet when exported into Excel and as a separate document when exported into CSV format and saved as follows:
- field_options
- study_variableslist
- survey_variablelist
- report_variablelist
In the 'Export type' dropdown menu select Excel or CSV, then select the relevant study section from the available data and click on the ‘Export’ button.
