Module View exports to excel. Sometimes custom link type information is incomplete

Celia Bengel (11●17) | asked Nov 15 '18, 9:16 a.m.

Issue: During the extract to excel from a module view, sometimes the custom links do not fully export with the Name.

Just one link type impacted - it is a custom link

This does not happen for all module views

Upgraded to 6.0.6 about two months ago

Mockup example below. The issue is the ID and Name are both needed in the export.

Name

Link:CUSTOMLINKs (<)

12345

ABC.123 (Good)

1234 ABC.123 {LINK id=1234 uri=https://.../rm/resources/_xxx}

12346

ABC.124

(Bad – missing ID and Name)

{LINK id=1235 uri=https://.../rm/resources/_xxx}

Work Around: For some reason, the problem goes away if I add a filter on the view to only pull in rows with link type “CUSTOMLINK” (e.g. Smaller view) I can then use vlookup to combine this information into my spreadsheet.
