- The term Virtual Analyst was removed from the documentation.

Added documentation about exporting full tables with millions of Workspace rows to cloud destinations.
Exporting full tables offers one-time or scheduled delivery of data tables designed within Workspace with support for up to five breakdowns, five metrics, filters, and calculated metrics, all in a concatenated table.
