- You can use script to download a file or blob of data and force its name. See the attached screenshot where I download all the records in the formula function reference and give it a name myreport.csv:

So all you have to do is bind this script to a button and arrange to pass the name you want for the file.- Dan, I was able to implement this solution exactly as you presented it and it works great! However, I would like to create a CSV in this manner without the column headers. Is that something that is easily done?
- The variable csv is just a string with newlines separating each row.
This will probably work:var csv2 = csv.split('\n').slice(1).join('\n');Very simple console test:
download("myuniquefile.csv", csv2);csv="a,b\n1,2\n3,4"
"a,b
1,2
3,4"
csv.split('\n').slice(1).join('\n');
"1,2
3,4" - Perfect! That is exactly what I needed. Thanks!
