IPA Print Manager Create CSV file

I am trying to figure out how to automate a manual process that I am currently performing. I have a report that runs and from the Print Manager I select the report and then select Create CSV File. Is there a way to do this in IPA?

The report is used for other purposes, but I need to be able to generate the CSV format for this file then sftp it for an interface.

I haven't tried this, but based on your description it sounds like you want to run the UserFolder.ExportToCSV action from an IPA flow, which theoretically you could do in a Landmark transaction.

Try adding a Landmark Transaction for Business Class User Folder and invoke the ExportToCSV action. You may need to grab the key values of your report (User Folder).

Interesting note, I don't think you can run that action anymore from the "new" report catalog.

A coworker of mine created a process for this using a transaction node:

_dataArea="<!appProdline>" & _module="la" & _objectName="ReportDocument" & _actionName="CreateWithUserReport" & _actionOperator="NONE" & _actionType="SingleRecordQuery" & _runAsUser="<!vRunAs>" & _authenticatedUser="" & _pageSize="30" & _relationName="" & _setName="ByActorName" & _asOfDate="" & _effectiveDate="" & ReportDocument_CreateStamp.Actor="<!vRunAs>" & Name="<!vFileName>" & MimeType="text/csv" & SourceType="11" & Document="<!vOutputData>" & ReportDocument
