## Documentation content

On a deployment's Settings > Data exploration tab, prediction row storage is enabled, activating the [Data exploration](https://docs.datarobot.com/en/docs/workbench/nxt-console/nxt-monitoring/nxt-data-exploration.html) tab. Here, you can export a deployment's stored training data, prediction data, and actuals to compute and monitor custom business or performance metrics on the [Custom metrics](https://docs.datarobot.com/en/docs/workbench/nxt-console/nxt-monitoring/nxt-custom-metrics.html) tab or outside DataRobot.

On a deployment's Data Exploration Settings page, configure the Prediction Data Collection setting:

| Field | Description |
| --- | --- |
| Enable prediction row storage | Enables prediction data storage, a setting required to store and export a deployment's prediction data for use in custom metrics. This setting is enabled by default. |
