Exporting Data

What

From almost any table or list in FileWave Anywhere, you can export the data in the current view as a CSV file.

When/Why

Use export when you need to work with the current FileWave Anywhere view in a spreadsheet, share a filtered list, or save a point-in-time report outside FileWave.

A CSV export contains data values, not a reusable Report definition. If you need to copy a Report's criteria to another FileWave Server, use Exporting & Importing Inventory Reports in FileWave Central instead.

How

Right-click in the current view and choose "Export to CSV". The export reflects the data and columns available in that view, so apply filters or column choices before exporting when you need a specific result.

Open the downloaded CSV and check its column headings and a few expected records before sharing it. Confirm that it covers the devices or results you intended to export, and review any device or user information in the file before sending it outside your administration team. The file is a point-in-time copy; export again when you need updated values.

For the equivalent results-export workflow in FileWave Central, see Export the results of an Inventory Report.
