+### CSV export
+
+An automatic export of attributes is available as CSV. Only attributes that are flagged "to_ids" will get exported.

+You can configure your tools to automatically download the following file:

+~~~~
+
+You can specify additional flags for CSV exports as follows:
+
+~~~~
+https://<misp url>/events/csv/download/[eventid]/[ignore]/[tags]/[category]/[type]/[includeContext]/[from]/[to]/[last]
+~~~~
+
+eventid: Restrict the download to a single event
+ignore: Setting this flag to true will include attributes that are not marked "to_ids".
+tags: To include a tag in the results just write its names into this parameter. To exclude a tag prepend it with a '!'. You can also chain several tag

+~~~~
+
+category: The attribute category, any valid MISP attribute category is accepted.
+type: The attribute type, any valid MISP attribute type is accepted.
+includeContext: Include the event data with each attribute.
+from: Events with the date set to a date after the one specified in the from field (format: 2015-02-15)
+to: Events with the date set to a date before the one specified in the to field (format: 2015-02-15)
+last: Events published within the last x amount of time, where x can be defined in days, hours, minutes (for example 5d or 12h or 30m)
