Leading Zero's need to be preserved in numbers while exporting to CSV.

Created on 26 December 2017, over 7 years ago

I want to export Phone number with Country prefix, which has some leading zeros in it. I want to make this field automatically exported as a text field. I can make it render as a text field by adding some characters to it but it will also add some undesirable characters to it.

Ex Format of Phone number : 0033123456789

If you want to edit the formatting of the fields that are exported, you'll need to look into Views or Field formatters, as the data export system only does some light rendering of the data that is otherwise provided by Views.

For example, you'd have the exact same problem if you were rendering an HTML table, so fix it for that use-case and then it'll work when you export to CSV using this module too.
