# Exploring Datasets

## Overview

The Data Explorer Page is a dedicated page for manipulating a single dataset. It offers tools housed in a toolbar for dataset manipulation and customization, including grouping, filtering, sorting, and more capabilities. Additionally, it provides a Stats Panel for detailed statistics by columns. This documentation covers the features and usage of the Data Explorer Page.

By default, the page displays a sample of 10,000 rows. You can **change the sample size** and select the sample type, either 'Use the first rows' or 'Use a random set of rows.' Click the "setting" icon next to the dataset name to call a popup with the settings.

### Toolbar Options

The toolbar at the top of the Data Explorer Page comprises various options for data manipulation:

**Group by.** Allows you to group rows based on selected columns.

**Filter.** It provides the capability to apply conditional filters to the dataset.

**Sort.** Facilitates ordering of rows based on selected column criteria.

**Hide.** Enables hiding of selected columns from the view.

**Data Bars.** Offers a graphical representation of data for easy comparison.

#### Convert to Flow Button

The 'Convert to Flow' button lets you convert the current dataset view into a flow within the Flow Page. It also applies all current filters as transformation steps automatically.

#### Save As Button

Use the 'Save as' button to apply current filters to the entire dataset and save it as a CSV file. It can take a while as filters are applied to the whole dataset, depending on the dataset size and your computer engine.

### Stats Panel

On the right-hand side of the page, a Stats Panel is available, offering column-wise statistics such as mean, median, standard deviation, etc. See [detailed documentation](/product-overview/exploring-data/statistics-panel.md) on how to use column statistics.
