author: Dave Bosman [Realdolmen]
body: So, i did a small google search and already found 2 solutions

The first one is a good solution if it is only for you.

[First solution](https://iamdav.in/2014/10/24/bookmarklet-creating-csv-html-table/)

I tested it and it works.

The second is a good solution if you want to give the functionality to all your users.

[Second solution](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1212855/csv-table-export?hosting=server&tab=overview&_ga=2.180384295.1491180828.1535346122-1516522950.1533626947)

I did not test this one.

Regards,

Dave

![2018-08-27 10_59_50-Bookmarklet for Creating a CSV From an HTML Table.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/30509i678C29FD6A91656D/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "2018-08-27 10_59_50-Bookmarklet for Creating a CSV From an HTML Table.png")

* Do as it says and drag it to your bookmarks toolbar.

* Go to the page with the table and click the new bookmark that you created in the previous step. After you clicked the bookmark it will add "Export to CSV" above your table.
* Now click "Export to CSV".

body: i need to send the confluence data as doc or the report format and then send the email ?

eg: we have stored some data or information in the confluence page , those data need to be sent to mail


author: Dave Bosman [Realdolmen]
body: I'm still not 100 % sure about what you need but,

Do you need this file that you created to be sent automatically everytime?

Then this is not possible for as far as i know without writing a custom plugin.

body: [@Dave Bosman \[Realdolmen\]](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1839428) your servlet helped !

Copy and pasting the table without the servlet was a pain what looked like a single cell in Confluence was multiple rows in excel. The servlet delivered a tidy table that was much easier to work with.

Thanks!

**Live filtration in the view mode:**
