Yammer Analytics Data Export

I want to create some dashboards and reports based on the yammer data. I found a interesting link to get through this http://blogs.msdn.com/b/richard_dizeregas_blog/archive/2014/04/09/yammer-analytics-with-excel-and-power-bi.aspx?CommentPosted=true#commentmessage

I am performing the same steps as mentioned in the above link but there is some issue with yammer export processor (https://yammer.azurewebsites.net/) as when I am selecting my network it throughs an error for saying "error validating user as a network admin enter image description here

Does anybody has idea related to the issue or any other method to export data from yammer.

Thanks Piyush

If the site uses the data export API, the user initiating the export must be a "verified admin" on the Yammer network. There is another permissions level called "network admin", which sometimes causes confusion.

See "Admin level rights" at: https://support.office.com/en-au/article/Yammer-admin-guide-a9c206d4-fb18-4250-bec6-e783b926e4f6

Please note that the yammer.azurewebsites.net site is a project site that the author of the referenced MSDN blog constructed, and as such is a personal project for demonstration purposes, not a part of the Yammer service.

To export data from Yammer you can either do it from the Admin interface in Yammer or use the API, documented at this link https://developer.yammer.com/v1.0/docs/data-export-api. You must be a verified admin to use the data export.

Not sure you can do that if you're just a regular user. The export function of Yammer requires you to be an Admin. http://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2848223.
