New: Advanced Search and Export

There are two types of searches in Cirkus:

Exporting your results

When you have your results you can save and export them as a csv file.

In the Mac app using the “Share” option in the toolbar.
In web and iOS select Export to CSV.

When exporting you will be prompted for the separator to use. If you want to use the data in Microsoft Excel you should select that option, to ensure that the data is formatted correct.

All of the data from the Tasks, Bookings and Projects are exported to your csv file.
