Schedule CSV Export

Post by 4real »

I'd like to schedule a CSV Export, overwriting the same file, of one of my saved searches. I see some stuff in the docs about using the command line for export, but I've failed to get it working so far. I'm not, generally a user of command line, so I probably doing something pretty basic wrong. I guess once I get it working from there I can set something up with Task Scheduler?

Any help appreciated!

using the command line for export
So just what have you tried, & what happened with those attempts?

I tried using what's in the help docs, but with 'mysearch' replaced with on of my bookmarked searches
es.exe "my search" -export-csv out.csv

So "my search" is your Bookmark?

Did you add a colon (:) to the Bookmark name (& maybe quotes around it if it includes spaces ?) ?

Something like this, where blabla: is a Bookmark, works here (Everything 1.5 in case that matters):
es.exe blabla: -export-csv out.csv
