talkvalue path person export streams every person in the active workspace as CSV to stdout. The command writes directly to stdout and ignores --format / --json. Export is always CSV, so it can be redirected straight to a file or piped into another tool.
Synopsis
Options
This command takes no flags beyond the global flags. Passing--json or --format json prints a warning to stderr and still emits CSV.
Examples
1. Save to a file
people.csv. The header row is always present. Column order matches the dashboard export.
2. Pipe into a transformer
csvtk (or mlr, xsv, etc.) without ever touching disk. Useful when the dataset is large enough that round-tripping JSON would be expensive.
3. Snapshot for archival
Response
Emails and Phones hold every address and number on the person, joined with ;. The file carries a UTF-8 BOM so it opens directly in Excel. Treat the first row as the header and parse the rest as data.
