FieldDescription
Items to Download

Select an option:

  • Export Selected Items
    This option is available if you have selected data records from the grid. PhixFlow automatically limits the download to 500 records. If you select more records than this limit, the extra records will be ignored.
  • Export All Items
    This option exports:
    • either all the data
    • or, if you have applied a filter, all  all items selected by the filter.
Tip

Be aware of how many records will be downloaded if you choose to export all (or all filtered) items. In some cases streams or database tables contain millions of records. Downloading many records can take a long time. Please be sure that you want to do this before proceeding.


Maximum Records Per File

If Items to Download is Export All Items, and there are many records, optionally specify the number of records to export to a file. PhixFlow splits the records into several files and zips them together ready for downloading.

PhixFlow uses the system maximum to determine the number of records to save to each file if you:

  • leave this value blank
  • enter a number that is greater than the system maximum.

The system maximum is set in System Configuration → System Tuning section → Maximum Records Per Download File.

Maximum Download Limit

This field is available if there is a limit to the number of records you may export. It is read-only.

PhixFlow displays the maximum number of records that you can download. If you select more records than the limit, the extra records will be ignored.

The limit is set for all sources of data in System Configuration → System Tuning → Default Download File Limit. 

You can override the system limit this limit, either to reduce or increase it, for specific streams, . Use the properties in the Stream properties → Download Limits section.

Use Excel Template

The field is available for stream data, where the backing stream view has a template configured.

Specify whether PhixFlow should use the Excel template associated with the stream view. If selected, PhixFlow formats the data using the predefined layout in the Excel spreadsheet.

For information about setting up and Excel template, see Stream View.
