Terminate CSV export and report an error if the export time limit is exceeded
The maximum time limit for a CSV export is two minutes. Previously, if the export time limit was exceeded no error message was displayed. In this case, the CSV export might take a long time to complete and the returned CSV export file might only contain a subset of the total rows to be exported.
Now, if the maximum time limit for CSV export is exceeded, an error message is displayed, the CSV wxport is immediately terminated, and no CSV export file is returned.

Maybe rephrase that a little bit?
“Co-authors can now request the transfer of their co-authored applications, app owners can choose to approve or deny the request…”

[Adding a new way to perform App Transfer Requests](https://community.appsheet.com/t/adding-a-new-way-to-perform-app-transfer-requests/58112) Announcements
We are beginning today to release a feature to help our app creators transfer their applications more easily. Now instead of requiring the user’s email and account id before transferring, we are providing a button for co-authors to request the transfer of the app (under Manage → Authors). [Screen Shot 2021-11-09 at 10.43.58 AM] after which the app owner can decide whether to approve the transfer (or not), and can pick between multiple requests if there are multiple requests.

@Phil
Basic assumption with me was
- Exporting to CSV by action
- Create Excel file by workflow (Automation)
are kinds of sibline, should do the same sort of jobs.
We did test how it would work with large amount of data set.
We tested with 50k ish number of rows on the single table.
Exporting to CSV file managed to get through. We could get the file at the end although it take some time.
However, creating Excel file for the same table, same number of record. This failed due to 2 min constrain.
Wondering why this is happening. Obviously bot is using inefficient code to create the excel file rather than action does export to csv. If possible, I really need clarification from dev team to find a way to get our challenge through.
Sorry, not really directly connecting this new feature update, but this is quite important with us, for clients who daily deals with large amont of data set with AppSheet.
