This task is available for all Miradore users.

Export

By default, this task exports all the view contents in the selected file format. However, you can use the check boxes in the view to export selected rows only. You can select rows for the export from one page of the view at a time.

The supported file formats for the data export are CSV, Excel, and PDF. In some views, configuration items can be also exported to a group distribution.

If you experience system errors or timeouts when trying to export large amounts of data to Excel, you can try to troubleshoot the problem by adjusting the value of the "Number of rows processed per query" field in Miradore system settings > Main > Export settings.
