Export responses to CSV
Open Room controls and select Export CSV. The export contains the session’s response data for use in a spreadsheet.
Export includes hidden and archived responses, not only the cards in the current filtered view. Treat the file as teaching data and store or delete it according to your institution’s requirements.
Poll results have their own Download CSV action in the poll panel.
Clear and archive the live room
Select Clear / archive room under Data actions. Confirm the action after checking that you are in the intended session.
This removes the current responses and group questions from the live room while retaining them in the archive and session CSV export. It does not delete the hosted space or session, and it does not change the current prompt.
Use this when you want a clean live stream for another activity but need to retain the earlier dataset.
Undo a recent archive
Immediately after archiving, select Undo archive to restore that archived batch to the live room. The shortcut is tied to the most recent archive action shown on that dashboard.
If you leave or reload the page, do not assume the shortcut will remain available. Export before clearing when retaining a local copy is important.
Permanently delete activity
Ed.ie currently has no self-service control for permanently deleting a session or its archived activity. Clear / archive room is not deletion.
If permanent deletion is required under your class or institution’s retention policy, contact the administrator or data owner responsible for your Ed.ie deployment. Identify the hosted space and session code, but do not send participant content through an insecure channel.
