**Hello,**

I’ve noticed that there have been quite a few requests regarding exporting data from Big Tables, and I’d like to show you a way to do it natively without relying on Make.

I created a simple demo — here is the link:

> **[Demo CSV](https://go.glideapps.com/template/gYVG7t6tZZ7oPetM15Kd-template-published?privateTemplateToken=uKPo59VAfBEXB9gP44Af)**

You can take this even further by using a Query with customizable parameters.  
It should also be possible to let the user choose which columns they want to export, although I didn’t push the demo that far.

**Best regards,**

This is fantastic! Thanks for making it!

I seem to be hitting an issue where I only get the first 100 results, and nothing more in my export.  
I traced that back to the Joined List column in the helper table. Mine is warning me I’ll only get 100 results. However when I mess with your tables, I don’t get that warning.

I have turned your app inside out trying to figure out what is systemically different and I don’t see a difference!

Hello,

This 100-row limit is applied by Glide when you try to retrieve dynamically calculated data (such as Rollups) or when you access data from a basic table. This becomes problematic since the “Users” table is required to be a basic table.

I actually tried going big table to big table and still hit the issue. I had thought that was it.
