Confiform csv extract without meta data

malli geswari May 16, 2018

When we download the confoform data in excel/csv format, it gets downloaded with the metadata as well.

How do we ensure that the extract downloaded contains only the data that is part of the form.

If you only want to see certain fields in a csv export you can use a table view macro. Inside the body of the macro mace sure to only add the fields you want exported. You will also need to "Enable export" in the table view macro properties to see the CSV export link.

Hi Davin, when i click on view/edit data stored an try downloading the xls/csv files, meta data fields like id, created by etc also gets downloaded along with the fields that i require. How can we modify this?

Tried the way mentioned by you, it display the space id as well with a link, are there  options to just display page name

If you use the "view/edit data store" option you will get everything. That is not what you want. You want to use a table view to only get certain fields. It sounds like maybe you have a certain field that you are not getting the data the way you want when you use the table view macro. What type of field is it?

This is related to the query in the link "https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-questions/Confiforms-autopopulate-page-title/qaq-p/12589#U797319"

I have created the field type as "Page/Blog POst to display the page name. When we view the data in table view, the field displays the space id with a link as well with the page.

Is there a way to just display the page name or am i missing something?

To display just the name in your field macro for the field name property put in ...

{fieldname}.title

So, if you field was called formPage you would put ...

formPage.title

@malli geswari take a look at this page on ConfiForms field types and properties you can access. It will help you to understand what you can access per field type and how.

 

As @Davin Studer has mentioned, you can access only the title of the page, and have it in a view (as any other field property the Page/BlogPost has)
