Add Save Button to Script Output Window #19492

@madgrizzle

Description

@madgrizzle

NetBox version

v4.2.6

Feature type

New functionality

Proposed functionality

It would be an improvement to user experience if there were a Save button on a custom's script output panel so that it can be readily saved to a file. The button, ideally, would prompt a user to enter a filename and then have the file downloaded after submitting the filename.

Use case

I need to create CSV files from the data in the database and having the option to save the data would be convenient. Yes, the output can be selected, copied, and then pasted in a file, and then saved, but having the save option is a much better user experience.

Database changes

None

External dependencies

None

It could also be useful when running a report to be able to download the log content as CSV

@Omripresent I see that you've closed PR #19646. Are you still working on this issue, or should it be reassigned?
