Hi there,

could anyone know when configure the "Export Data Store Entity to Excel"/"Export CDT to Excel" smart service, "Save in Folder" can only be set as the folders in Appian platform. Is it possible to export to the application user's local computer?

Best regards,

Lin

The user would need to download the generated file to their computer using a!documentDownloadLink().  Alternatively, you could have an email sent to the user with the document attached as a standard email attachment.

Not possible directly.

If they use OneDrive/GDrive/Box etc. you could technically upload it there (assuming user has authorized via oauth code grant) and it would then sync with their local computer.
