Hello, What is the best way to add "Save As" functionality to App Search (ideally within Search-UI)? Preferably in csv format, but any other format is ok as well. Thank you ---

Hi Dmitry, We don't offer this functionality out of the box for App Search or Search UI. If you were customizing/modifying Search UI to offer a CSV download button, that would be fairly involved/complex to develop, but might be possible with a library such as [Papa Parse](https://www.papaparse.com/). You'd essentially want to have completely custom React code that takes the JSON response of the API search and feeds it into a CSV conversion library. Hope that helps, Constance ---
