2. Expand Data Scheduler in the left pane and click Upcoming.

3. Click New > Analytics Data Capture.

4. Select the profile from which you want to capture data.

6. Select the time period for which you want to extract data. The available time periods are determined by the report period selections for the profile. You can find these settings by editing the profile and clicking Reports > Report Periods and Storage. Your Time Period setting also determines how often data is captured. For example, if you select Month, data is captured monthly. Captures occur after the profile data is analyzed.
