I have a customer who uses chromebooks for their supervisors, I am trying to come up with a way to export reporting data tables to either a .csv or google drive. Because they are using chromebooks their access to the project is through the mobile module. saveFile and exportCSV work when running on a desktop because the project actually runs on the local device, but the mobile module is run from the gateway. Just hoping someone may have a solution.

This problem is among those that spurred the development of Perspective. Consider upgrading. Then you can use `system.perspective.download()` to deliver files to the user’s browser/device. Among other opportunities.
