Hi Everyone,

I would like to automate a couple of exports to csv files each night. Outside of purchasing the Queue option is there other ways to do this? Can I do this with Power Automate if I am not a programmer?

Thanks for your help,

    Unfortunately you cannot schedule export without RE:Queue. The whole purpose of RE:Queue is to schedule the exporting from RE database view.

    Power Automate is basically to “take” what has been exported already and do something with it (i.e. store in cloud location for use in other automation or reporting)

    @Theresa Meckel are you on-prem or hosted? If on-prem there are other options depending on what you want to export to csv.
