Export record data to csv

Hello,

Relatively new to Appian. I am wondering is there a way to programmatically / automatically export record data to an excel in csv format? I know there is the out of the box export link/button on record type, but that is a manual process. We want something that happens automatically.

Thank you

    Just build a scheduled process that makes use of the this service: https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/23.4/Export_To_CSV_Smart_Service.html

    But this smart service requires a data store entity correct? Not an appian record type?

    hi [mention:7b6415c4bcf746d681348bc1be4e1a39:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05] still you can create a cdt for it. publish it in datastore and create datastore entity for it and use it export  data store entity to csv. since we cannot pass record type into smart service, there is always a alternative approach
