The CSV exporter downloads the rows in a table as a CSV file. The columns currently visible in the Data Viewer control what gets included, and the export dialog lets you choose between the rows matching your active filters or every row in the table.

Step-by-step

1

Filter the rows you want (optional)

Open the table on the Data tab and apply filters until the grid shows the rows you’re interested in. This step is optional — you can also export everything regardless of filters.Filter records for export
2

Choose which columns to include

Click the View dropdown in the toolbar and toggle off any fields you don’t want in the file. Only the columns currently visible in the grid are included in the export.Select columns for export
3

Click Export

The Export Data dialog opens. Edit the File Name if you want, then choose Filtered Records Only (matches your active filters and selected columns) or All Records (every row in the table, still limited to the visible columns). Click Download to save the CSV to your machine.Export Data dialog with File Name and a choice between Filtered Records Only and All Records

What the file contains

  • Header row — the field names of the included columns.
  • One row per record — matching the current filtered view.
  • Date and timestamp formatting — ISO 8601 (2025-03-14T10:30:00Z for timestamps with time zone).
  • Relationship fields — the primary key of the related row, not the related row’s full content.
  • JSONB fields — the JSON value as a quoted string.
If you need a different shape — for example, joining in fields from a related table — define a view that returns the columns you want, then export the view.

Permissions

Exports respect the per-role read permissions configured in Role-Based Access. A user can only export rows and fields they’re allowed to read.

Apply filters in the toolbar, then pick Filtered Records Only in the Export Data dialog. Pick All Records to ignore active filters and export the whole table.
Very large exports may take a while to generate. For multi-million-row exports, consider scripting the dump through a custom function or the SQL Playground.
id is visible by default, so it’s included unless you hide it. created_by, updated_by, created_at, and updated_at are hidden by default — toggle them on from the View dropdown if you want them in the file.
