How to programmatically save a views data export file to a repository/a node field/etc.

Hi.
Using Views data export, is there a way to made the *.txt file that is provided as a file to download, directly saved on the webserver side into a repertory ?

We'd like to have a rule making that each time a content is published, Views data export exports some stuff of that published node into a local (server side) repertory.

And for the moment, choosing 'provide' as a file gives only the path to a downloadable file, but it looks that nothing is saved by Drupal.

Thanks for help
D.

I think that the best way forward here is in ✨ Support views data export using drush Needs review . That can give everyone a nice way to do a periodic or one-time export file.
Early in the life of this issue there were people that couldn't run drush, but I suspect that that might have been the state of the world 10 years ago, and wouldn't be the case now.

I'd encourage anyone who wants this and is able to join us over in ✨ Support views data export using drush Needs review where we'll take this feature forward.
