Hi Joe,

Most managers and non-technical people do not read XML.

Also, we are thinking of exporting in CSV format such things as the result of a Search or the result of a Compare operation.

Finally, we would like to offer the possibility to export only some properties of the objects.

Maybe an example will clear things up: a customer wanted a list of all the notifications sent by a Remedy application, and wanted to know in what circumstances these notifications were sent. We produced a CSV file, with the name of the Filters, the Run If condition, and the Notification details.

Just curious as to why an output to a CSV would this be useful when we can already output the definition files to XML and pretty much see all we need to in a fairly decent ‘human readable format’?

*Subject:* Export definitions to CSV file
** Hello List,

At ARSmarts, we are currently developing an « Export definitions to CSV » functionality. In version 2.8.1 (just released), we implemented a basic version of this functionality that allows to export the content of a grid to a CSV file.This is a start, but certainly not enough.

Now, here is where we can use your input: in order to build a really useful functionality, we need to know what objects you would like to see in the CSV file? What properties of what objects ...? In what situations would you like to use CSV documentation? In short: what are your needs.

Looking forward to hear from you all.
