Hi @ManojG ,

Currently this is one of the major limitations of Power BI that a user will have to click at least twice for exporting data from any visual.

You can submit an idea to introduce option to have exports on one-click or an idea to introduce an action to trigger the export.

You can submit your ideas here.
