docs(assets): document exporting the Asset inventory - #15683
Merged
Conversation
The Assets and Organizations lists gained CSV, Excel and JSON export, and the export carries the metadata that drives prioritization -- business criticality, user records, revenue, audience and reachability, plus platform, lifecycle, origin and the parent Asset. That makes it the practical way to review an inventory in a spreadsheet and fill in the business context only the customer's team knows. Also states the one behavior a reader would otherwise be surprised by: a value beginning with =, +, - or @ is written with a leading apostrophe, because every spreadsheet treats such a cell as a formula. Numbers are left alone so a revenue column still adds up. Documents the Pro feature added in dojo-pro#2481 and the escaping added in dojo-pro#2485, on the same release line.

Description
Documents the Asset inventory export, which ships in the same patch release as the feature it describes.
The All Assets and All Organizations lists gained CSV, Excel and JSON export. The export carries the
metadata that drives prioritization — business criticality, user records, revenue, external audience,
internet accessible — plus platform, lifecycle, origin and the parent Asset, so it is the practical way
to review an inventory in a spreadsheet and fill in the business context only a customer's own team
knows before bringing it back in.
The section also states the one behavior a reader would otherwise be surprised by: a value that begins
with
=,+,-or@is written with a leading apostrophe, because Excel, LibreOffice and GoogleSheets all treat such a cell as a formula. Numbers are left alone, so a revenue column still adds up.
Added to the Pro Assets page next to the other list operations, mirroring how the Findings page
documents its own CSV and Excel export.
