Hi @Bino_Oetomo,

Welcome! The underlying data for this dashboard table will be stored in an Elasticsearch index, which you should be able to extract data from using the [Elasticsearch Python client](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/client/python-api/current/index.html).

Specifically, looking at the [connection](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/client/python-api/current/connecting.html) and [searching](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/client/python-api/current/examples.html#ex-search) portions of the documentation should help you see the syntax.

Hope that helps!
