Is it possible to export the current data grid to CSV? With any data filters applied? So the CSV would match the data displayed in the data grid in the app. ---

You’d need to create custom filters that ultimately filters the data in the data editor (using a query most likely). Then you can use the query for both the table component and the CSV action. ---

Thanks Robert, that’s what I thought but wanted to check I wasn’t missing anything. Would be nice to have the option to export the data grid as is. ---

When using the generate CSV and open link in the action editor to download the CSV it works in the app builder on Chrome. But when trying this in our Mac safari based apps it doesn’t download the CSV instead it opens it in a new window as a text file. Any ideas? ---
