Cannot get all IDs for custom export smart action

Help me!
1

Expected behavior

I have 2023 records. When I click on “SELECT ALL RECORDS” then click on Actions → My smart export, I should get 2023 records ID in req.body.data.attributes.ids.

Actual behavior

There are only 15 records ID of the first page in req.body.data.attributes.ids array.

Hi @NathanLe :wave: welcome to our community.
If you use the select all feature, you need to use getIdsFromRequest helper from RecordsGetter like the code below:

const ( RecordGetter, permissionMiddlewareCreator } = require('forest-express-mongoose');
const { companies } = require('../models');

router.get('/companies.csv', permissionMiddlewareCreator.export(), (request, response, next) => {
  new RecordsGetter(companies).getIdsFromRequest(request)
    .then((ids) => {
      // Do what you want.
    });
});

Let me know if that help.
