We are running Graylog 2.4.7 on Ubuntu platform. We have collected logs but how do you export into CSV file? I do not see any option to do so.

What is the Role associated with the account you are logged in as? are you running under the free (less than 2GB) Enterprise License? I don’t think the licensing affects it but just checking. With Admin Role it should be there…

Hello, Just chiming in, I noticed you running an old version of Graylog,  
CSV downloads are located here.

For further information on that version you can look here

- [Welcome to the Graylog documentation — Graylog 2.4.6 documentation](https://archivedocs.graylog.org/en/2.4/index.html)

Or Here
