Hi. I’m trying to export some data to a .csv file at a scheduled rate (e.g. first of the month), but can only find the “Export data” action node in the actual app, not in Services.
How can I schedule the generation of a file based on a data source object within an app?
You are correct that the “Export Data” action node is currently missing from Services. We will address this in an upcoming challenge, but until then, I’d suggest the following workaround:
Use the “Create File Object” action node with source type Custom
Use a function to create a CSV-structure from the data. There is an example of such a function here (bullet point “For sending CSV or other file formats, …”): Integrate with OpenAI | Appfarm Documentation
Let me know if this solves your issue for the time being!
