NetBox version

3.1.10

Feature type

New functionality

Proposed functionality

Ability to export reports to CSV

Use case

easily getting report data out of netbox.
currently we have some reports that put CSV data in to the message field of a report.
we have to select the whole table and copy it to excel, fix the data styling, then we just split the final column by comma.

It would be nice to at least download the data in one click rather than having to copy paste and fix styling.
I understand that splitting out the final message is 100% out of scope

Database changes

Maybe use export templates for that?
See https://demo.netbox.dev/static/docs/customization/export-templates/ for further information.

I personally use export templates to get all devices and corresponding inventory items of a specific rack, one has the same options as for the reports in that regard.

Since you opened #9027 for something very similar, I'm going to close this FR.
