Extracting Metadata

Hi, I want to extract metadata in OneStream. While extracting the Accounts metadata, I want to extract both the 'Parent description' and 'Account type'. Through the grid view if you check the 'Display Parent Child Relationships' box, the account type goes away! I want to extract both of them together in a .csv file. 

This process also needs to be automated to be extracted on a scheduled basis. What would be the best solution to this problem?

    Write an extender rule to extract in CSV. I built my own solution to extract metadata by each dimension & embedded into dashboard. It extract all file in user directory which they can download.
    Do, your req, rule can be put in DM SEQ & schedule it through task scheduler

    I extract lots of field and it vary by dim but not by scenario type.
