How does CSV Connector work with Export Web Services?

NOTE: THIS CAPABILITY WAS DEPRECATED WITH CSV CONNECTOR V3 AND REPLACED WITH NEW EXPORT FUNCTIONALITY

CSV Connector Export Services

CSV Connector by itself is NOT capable of physically generating files on your desktop or on a server. This is due to Flash restrictions that actually protect your computers from malware. CSV Connector relies on basic web services to transact data from the Flash runtime to generate output files.

*NOTICE: CSV Connector provides the ability to stream data from the componet to web services for CSV export. CSV Connector DOES NOT include any of these services as part of the CSV Connector purchase or support. It is recommended that you work with a developer to assist you with any .NET, JAVA, or PHP deployment, troubleshooting, or additional development.

In an effort to facilitate rapid innovation and adoption, Centigon Solutions has released these services as open source projects independent from CSV Connector .Regardless of platform, browser, or scripting language CSV Connector can communicate with any export services written in .NET, PHP, and J2EE.
