Can symcli command output in csv format?

Is there a way to specify csv format for symcli command output? It will help a lot when using these output to do Excel report.

The answer is "sometimes". Many symcli commands have a "-output" option which supports csv, standard, and xml... But not all of them support csv...

you can use shell scripts to print it in CSV format.

When you send the output to a text file it will typically be in tab or space delimited format, and when you open a text file in that format in Excel you have the option to confirm/add/remove columns to the data.

You could also use the -output xml option to send the output into an XML format which will open up nicely in Excel in a table format.
