Rapid CSV Export

The Rapid CSV Export option provides a built-in capability for both the Data Table and Analysis Grid, running off the datalayer. This feature is available for Consumer and Self-Service users who export tabular data in CSV format for further analysis outside of the context of the Info application. The rapid export option greatly improves the performance of exporting large data, as compared to the regular CSV export option.
