CSV export doesn't include data with "Show If" formula

[Stobber]

I found a bug in AppSheet. When a CSV export action is created for a table, any columns with a "show if" formula will not have their values written to the CSV file. The column header will be written, but the values will be empty.

Here's an app that reproduces the behavior: https://www.appsheet.com/Template/AppDef?appName=ExportCSV-409218120&utm_source=share_app_link

The "Name" column has a show-if formula. It is displayed in the ""All Values" view. But if you export a CSV from the "All values" view, you'll see that the names are not present in the file.

Hey man,

I don't think it's a bug.

Quote:
"You can control which columns are exported and the order of those columns by basing the View on a Slice and specifying Slice Columns for the Slice."

Cheers 😁

I don't think that's relevant to this issue. In my example, the view is based on an entire table. A slice would only further limit the columns exported. But there's no requirement that the export action has to be based on a slice view; it's available for full-table views, too.
