I am trying to export the report in csv of the tables that are created using lens. where i have the hyperlink field .

When i download the report as CSV then its just download as text instead of the hyperlink with label and url attached to it.

Hi @kishorkumar

what's the expectation here, to see the URL in place of the actual value?

A CSV file can contain only plain text content.  
Right now the visible text is exported as CSV content, but the URL counterpart can be considered as well.

Then I think the Actual value (url) behind the label's should be considered.
