tip

The Template Toolkit templating engine is used in the Result Format to output the $inbound array in a FOREACH loop.

In the results filename, you just need to change the file extension to csv.

For the "Initial text" option to be 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 blank.
