Customize spreadsheet output?

Some managers at my site would like to use RT (3.4.2) to create some
metrics. However, the spreadsheet output (the link at the bottom of
query results) appears to have the same fields every time, regardless of
the format specification of the original query.

This is odd, since RT definitely passes the format specifier to the
spreadsheet module, but it seems to ignore it.

Does anyone have a canned solution to this problem?

Yes - we developed a download that downloads the displayed fields. I’ll try
to post something on the wiki in the next few days.

There is a slight glitch with our solution that shows on some, but not all,
of our RT instances - it’s possible to work around it, but perhaps if I
share it someone can figure out the problem.

Sounds great. Fortunately we only have one RT instance…

That means you have a 50% chance of it working right!

Hello,

I want to use the spreadsheet export with the same columns as those
displayed in the query web result.

The solution described here
(Request Tracker Wiki) is not
working with RT 3.8.*

Does someone have already done a working patch for RT 3.8 ?

Thanks

I have gone through and added extra columns to the spreadsheet by just updating /share/html/Search/Results.tsv. It took some testing to get the right fields down but it was a simple edit. This is what I currently have:
