Download & Filter into CSV File

John_Paul_Armis · 12-09-2020 05:02 PM

Good Day Guys,

Is it possible to download only the values needed in a column? - I already used slice for the users view - in that users view can i filter only the needed data to be downloaded?

I believe you are basically looking for a dynamic filter for the slice based on app user’s selection.

Please take a look at the following sample app. You could run the “CSV Export” action on the dynamic filter slice.

When I select export this view to CSV File it only shows the Tables and no selection for the Slice I created.

Can you elaborate with relevant screenshots? In the meantime can you please confirm the action is applied to the slice as well and the action is of “Overlay” type.

Got it this. I can now filter the data based on the selected Product. Thank you so much for your big help.

Just wanna ask also, My data is separated by Useremail and different view for each email. Download Action is only working on 1 Useremail, those data is gathered only in one table.

You may wish to share the expression or the method of how the data is seprated by useremail(). If the email with you are testing has also access to only its own records then the CSV download is probably downloading those records only.

You may want to test with more useremails() and ensure the filter expression is working as expected by downloading data for respective emails based on filter expression.

Please elaborate. Which one email? Are all the records getting downloaded for that one email?
