<![CDATA[Export archive file to csv]]>Hi, is it possible to set up the MangoES to export data as a csv/excel file, ideally on a separate local drive? Ideally this would be a daily or monthly file saved to a specific location, where the site engineer can access it if required.

You can use the Excel reports module to generate an Excel file on a schedule. The files are stored on the local system in /opt/mango/web/modules/excelReports/web/report-data
You could set up a cron job to copy all these files to your location of choice.

We can probably make that work. Just one question - does the Mango have Samba (installed and configured), and therefore set up a shared directory. This way we can 'pull' from Windows?

The file names look like: Nov_13__2016_9_00_00_AM_Sync_Time_Report.xlsx

Thanks for your reply. That looks like being a potential solution for us. Is cron able to copy the files to a Windows machine? And does the Excel report allow data / time to be appended to the file name?
