How to download the database table contents to the Excel file .CSV format in OneStream

Hi all,

How to download the table contents from the System --> database --> Tables or Views, when I tried to download, it is allowing to download the 50 rows only - I'm not sure where is a restriction like this and how would I avoid these issues?

Thanks

    Go to security, select your user. Go to preferences and change the Grid Rows Per Page.

      Thanks Hector - what if I have more than 1000 rows, then how would I do it? I tried that option, it has maximum of only 1000 rows. 

      Thanks

        Hi syedfasiullah,

        In that case you might want to export the content of the table to .csv via a business rule.

        You could do this by getting the data you want to export into a data table object like this:

        Dim dtResult As DataTable
Using dbConnApp As DBConnInfo = BRApi.Database.CreateApplicationDbConnInfo(si) 
  Dim strSQL As New Text.StringBuilder
  strSQL.AppendLine("Select * from TableToExport")
  dtResult = BRApi.Database.ExecuteSqlUsingReader(dbConnApp, strSQL.ToString, False)
End Using

        And then use the DataTableToFile function that I've shared on this post:
