It would be really nice if I could give my customers the ability to export a data grid that I have given them access too - just the view of the data grid that I created for them - as CSV/Excel. Ie an “export” action button for data grid. ---

Oh just wait…I’ve seen some interesting things in the works related to CSV export 🤫 ---

Yes, there is now a CSV Integration that can be used. The integration could be tied to an action attached to the Data Grid. Note that the integration does not respect In-App filtering, so if you wanted to export a filtered list you would need to create your own custom filters. > **[Generate CSV | Glide Docs](https://www.glideapps.com/docs/automation/integrations/generate-csv)** > > Let users generate CSV files from your tables or relations through an action. ---

What would you suggest as the easiest way to set up our custom filters? Is that through the csv after it is exported? I’m thinking if there is a way to use an action to add what is filtered to a unique sheet, and then export from that sheet. But I am curious what you’ve been able to come up with. ---

No, you would need to set it up so that the Data Grid is sourced from a dynamic Query or Multiple Relation, and then use that Query/Relation as the source of the CSV Export. Check out @Robert_Petitto’s tutorials. He has at least a couple that walk through the process of creating dynamic filters. ---

Awesome! I’ll check it out, thank you!
