CSV reports show consolidated shares in a single line
4 posts · Closed
Hi Team,
We are testing Network Scanner to identify open shares, and have a question about the CSV reports: when we save the scan results as a CSV file, instead of giving details of the shared folders individually, it gives us a consolidated report in a single line.
Is there any other way to do this?
CSV is not really suitable for a tree-like output with share details. If you need each share's details, you should choose XML, JSON or HTML file - in that case all details will be preserved.
I agree, however when I need to share the report of multiple asset open share information I have to relay on CSV reports. Due to the way our teams work, it is not practical to share XML or HTML files.
We were planning to purchase the product, but got stuck in the reporting format. It would be great if you could provide a work-around to get in CSV reports something similar to what we see in the Network Scanner UI.
We have just published a new build with the CSV output you were asking for.
Please note that at the moment the new format is only written when saving from the GUI.
