             Summary: Enabling downloading more rows with Download Data as CSV
                 Key: ZEPPELIN-2487
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZEPPELIN-2487
             Project: Zeppelin
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 0.7.1
            Reporter: Paul Brenner


There are limits to how much data the download to csv button will download 
which limit Zeppelin’s usefulness for our BI teams. In Chrome the limit is 
either 1.5MB or 3500 rows. In Firefox it is possible to download 100k rows, 
however the web interface slows to a crawl. 

Although most users fluent in whatever language they are working with would 
just export 100k rows directly to csv (e.g. via df.write.csv() in spark), if 
Zeppelin is going to be a BI tool useful to analysts it is important to include 
a way to export more data to csv via the web app. 

Would it be possible to include a way to download more data (perhaps up to 100k 
rows if we need a limit) without showing all the rows on screen? Hue is able to 
do this by only loading data as it is scrolled through. If that is too complex 
perhaps just add an option to download all of the data sent to z.show even 
though z.show is limited to showing 1000 rows. 

Discussion on the users list is here:
