Representation of the Report View in the CSV Export

In the exported report, each main item is presented in a row, with child rows for each of the linked items.

Key Points of the CSV Structure -

• The CSV data includes a Link column that explicitly denotes the relationship between items.

• For each main item, additional columns follow, representing linked items associated with the main item.

• These columns have fields as the main item and the data in these columns correspond to the linked items' information.

• If there is more than one linked item for a main item, each linked item is listed on a separate line.

This structure allows for a concise representation of main items and their linked items in a tabular format. Each row provides a comprehensive view of the relationships and details associated with the main item and its linked items.

Example

For example, let us consider the Link Type view of the Goals board –
