Great Article Steve. My requirement varies slightly. I have a customer membership database for a car club. The club has 4 regions, each with a regional director. I have created a protected page for these directors with links that use wixData.query to get active members or expired active members’ name and email address so that they can send reminders to members, announcemnts etc. I create the lists but before seeing this saw no way to export to a CSV that they can download to do their emails. I do not want to give them access to the Wix Dashboard for marketing emails. My basic change it that I would hardcode the dataset so there is just a download button?
