Introduction

Batch exports are Batches that join each record the filter returns into a merged file, for example, a CSV file. The merged file is then ingested as a new record of record type Export and is automatically exported for the user that created the batch. The user then sees the merged file in their downloads in the front end.

CSV Export

The merged file is in this case a CSV file. The following options are present

  • Link to one of theProfiles of the category “Export”

  • The separator between rows: fixed at \n

  • The separator between columns: fixed at ;

  • The separator inside columns: fixed at ,

Headers

The columns in the CSV export are determined by the order in which the Field Definitions appear in the associated profile. For certain Metadata Field Types as described in the next section, there are multiple corresponding columns.

Column formatting
