Export Fields as RAW / ASCII Text

The CSV export will likely wrap things in quotes for compatibility reasons, I don’t believe there is a way I’ve seen to turn it off.

You could easily create a form script that generates the output via console.log that you could easily grab out of the display, something like:

for (let record of form.getRecords()) {
  console.log(record.getFieldValue('fld-yourfieldid'));
}

Would do the trick to dump out all of the records to the console for you. Replace the fld-yourfieldid with the field ID you care about, you can get the field ID by double clicking on the field you want in the script editor or from underneath the field description in the field editor.

There isn’t a way to write a file directly, if I was to put it straight to a file I would send it to a web service and use that to dump it to disk for me. You can use Utils.postContentToUrlWithContentType() or Utils.postJsonToUrl() to call out to a web service. Probably for your use case postContentToUrlWithContentType with a simple text content would suffice. They’re pretty simple API’s with details on the Javascript page.

Something like this should work:

let entries = [];
for (let record of form.getRecords()) {
  entries.append(record.getFieldValue('fld-yourfieldid'));
}
Utils.postContentToUrlWithContentType(entries.join("\n"), "http://localhost/tapforms-bridge.php", "text/plain");

Then tapforms-bridge.php could look like this:

<?php
file_put_contents("/tmp/file.txt", file_get_contents("php://input"));

As a simple example of getting data out, it’s not the greatest solution but it should do the trick. You’d need to get the built in Apache and PHP set up on your Mac but there are plenty of guides out there for that.

It would be good to have some cover methods to let you write directly to the file system from JavaScript.

Yes, an extra option to include or exclude quotes is also a thing I could add. Will consider it for a future version. Thanks for the feature request.
