Hi Noah,

 

for this I would suggest using API_GenResultsTable, which has a csv option, and also permits usertoken as a parameter. Here's an example:

 

https://mcftech.quickbase.com/db/<dbid>?a=api_genresultstable&qid=1&options=csv&usertoken=<usertoken>

 

This should immediately force a csv download in your browser. Hope that helps!
