Export contacts from targetlist : select all records at once

[rinorway]

Situation :

• we have a targetlist, based on 8 reports.
• we want to export the contacts of that targetlist to Excel

Current procedure :

• Choose "view list" in the Contacts panel of the targetlist.
• select all rows by using the checkbox, but this only selects the visible rows, not all. For that you need to scroll down, select "show more" and reselect all. This is error prone.

Suggested : add option "Select all result" next to the checkbox, similar to the option in a report.

Similar code used in Report : data-action="selectAllResult"

There is the dropdown next to the checkbox where you can select all results. https://github.com/espocrm/documenta...uide/export.md

I know this exists in the main Contacts screen, but I am referring to
Target List -> Contacts panel -> view list.

In the screenshot you see 775 contacts : there is no "select all" here. The selectbox only will select the visible list, not "all results"

You can make a filter in contact list view by target lists and export.

Yes that works, thank you.

For other readers : please note that this does NOT exclude opted out contacts: even when opted out for that target list you will be in the selection
