CSV reports

CSV stands for Comma Separated Value. CSV reports can be used in other applications such as Excel.

Overview

There are three types of CSV reports:

  • Core report

  • Detail report

  • Public report

Core report

The core report iincludes the key descriptive information for a record, such as:

  • Object Number

  • Name

  • Maker

  • Brief Description

  • Location

Detail report

The detail report includes all fields.

Public report

The public report Includes only the fields which the public can view when a record is published.

Delimiter options for repeating fields

A delimiter is a character that is indicates the beginning or end of a string of data.

You can choose how fields with multiple entries are delimited (separated) in the CSV file. For example, if an object record has three entries in the Subject and Association Keywords field, you may want these separated by commas.

  • Comma: a comma will appear between each entry in the field.

  • Pipe (|): a vertical bar will appear between each entry in the field.

  • New Line: each entry in the field will be on a new line.

  • HTML break: an HTML break tag ( <br/> ) will appear between each entry in the field.
