You can use the SELECT INTO statement to export formatted data to a file.

Data Export with an SQL Query

The following query exports data into a file formatted in comma-separated values (CSV):

SELECT Browser, DeviceCategory INTO [csv://Traffic.txt] FROM [Traffic] WHERE Transactions = '0'

You can specify other formats in the file URI. The possible delimiters are tab, semicolon, and comma with the default being a comma. The following example exports tab-separated values:

SELECT Browser, DeviceCategory INTO [csv://Traffic.txt;delimiter=tab] FROM [Traffic] WHERE Transactions = '0'

C#

String connectionString = "Profile=myProfile;";

using (GoogleAnalyticsConnection connection = new GoogleAnalyticsConnection(connectionString)) {
  GoogleAnalyticsCommand cmd = new GoogleAnalyticsCommand("SELECT Browser, DeviceCategory INTO [csv://Traffic.txt] FROM [Traffic] WHERE Transactions = '0' ", connection);
  int rowsAffected = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
} 

VB.NET

Dim connectionString As [String] = "Profile=myProfile;" 

Using connection As New GoogleAnalyticsConnection(connectionString)
  Dim cmd As New GoogleAnalyticsCommand("SELECT Browser, DeviceCategory INTO [csv://Traffic.txt] FROM [Traffic] WHERE Transactions = '0'", connection)
  Dim rowsAffected As Integer = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
End Using

You can specify other file formats in the URI. The following example exports tab-separated values:

C#

String connectionString = "Profile=myProfile;";

using (GoogleAnalyticsConnection connection = new GoogleAnalyticsConnection(connectionString)) {
  GoogleAnalyticsCommand cmd = new GoogleAnalyticsCommand("SELECT * INTO [Traffic] IN [csv://filename=c:/Traffic.csv;delimiter=tab] FROM [Traffic] WHERE Transactions > '0'", connection);
  int rowsAffected = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
} 

VB.NET

Dim connectionString As [String] = "Profile=myProfile;" 

Using connection As New GoogleAnalyticsConnection(connectionString)
  Dim cmd As New GoogleAnalyticsCommand("SELECT * INTO [Traffic] IN [csv://filename=c:/Traffic.csv;delimiter=tab] FROM [Traffic] WHERE Transactions > '0'", connection)
  Dim rowsAffected As Integer = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
End Using
