tip

In the Result format, the Template Toolkit is used to output the $inbound array in a FOREACH loop.

In the result filename, you simply need to change the file extension to csv.

To make the "Initial text" option available in the Task Editor, you need to activate "More options". In "Initial text", write the column names separated by commas and make the second line empty.
