CSV configuration parameters
The CSV ("Comma-Separated Values") file format is often used to exchange data between disparate applications. The file format, as it is used in Microsoft Excel, has become a pseudo-standard throughout the industry, even among non-Microsoft platforms.
Some application features import or export data in CSV (Comma-Separated Values), such as search results, user lists in administration, and others. The format of the output CSV file can be configured with several parameters to suit your needs.
