In this lesson, you'll learn the four categories of data exports in Parabola and see how to add send steps to your flow by prompting or searching the canvas.

<Card icon="sparkles" title="Building challenge">
  Your accruals data is ready — now export it as a CSV for ERP upload and build a visualization to review totals by carrier at a glance.

  <Steps>
    <Step title="Copy and paste this prompt into Parabola to export your report as a CSV">
      ```text wrap theme={null}
      Export a CSV file at the end of the flow. Title the CSV file "GL Account Accruals".
      ```
    </Step>

    <Step title="Add a Visualization step and configure it as a column chart">
      * Search for the **Visualize** step and drag it onto the canvas below your **Generate CSV file** step
      * Grab an arrow from your previous data transformation step and connect it to your **Visualize** step so data is flowing in
      * Open the step and change the chart type to **Column chart**. Title the chart "Uninvoiced Shipping Accruals by Carrier" and set the X-axis to **Carrier Name**
      * To configure the Y-axis, click **Add Series**, set **Debit** as the Y-axis, and format your Y-axis as currency
      * Change the aggregation method on **Debit** from **Count** to **Sum**, and give both your X and Y axes a title
      * Add a filter rule to only show columns where **Carrier Name** is not blank
    </Step>
