## Summary When a table from a dashboard using the **Download CSV** action, the column sort order visible in the table on the dashboard are preserved in the csv output. https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/7454a511-150b-45a2-86c5-1cd61bc0191a Fixes elastic#236550 ## Details The `datatable_fn` is used to set the table of data to the `adapters`, which is the data used in the csv export action. This data comes in out of order with additional `Part of X` columns for formula columns. However, we do not sort these in before passing to the adapters. Normally, with formulas, this is not a problem as the columns are in the correct order but the [`tabify`](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/blob/8d4b0956586284c35db97de2baea49b58476ee2a/src/platform/plugins/shared/data/common/search/tabify/tabify.ts#L24) logic mixes up the column order for formulas. The fix is to simply sort the columns in the table before passing it to the `adapters.` ### Checklist - [x] [Unit or functional tests](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/master/development-tests.html) were updated or added to match the most common scenarios - [x] The PR description includes the appropriate Release Notes section, and the correct `release_note:*` label is applied per the [guidelines](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/master/contributing.html#kibana-release-notes-process) - [x] Review the [backport guidelines](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1VyN5k91e5OVumlc0Gb9RPa3h1ewuPE705nRtioPiTvY/edit?usp=sharing) and apply applicable `backport:*` labels. ## Release Note Fixes a bug in the Lens table in which exporting the table from a dashboard, which containg formula columns, can result in a different column order than shown on the dashboard.

Summary
When a table from a dashboard using the Download CSV action, the column sort order visible in the table on the dashboard are preserved in the csv output.
Zight.Recording.2025-09-27.at.10.34.45.AM.mp4
Fixes #236550
Details
The
datatable_fnis used to set the table of data to theadapters, which is the data used in the csv export action. This data comes in out of order with additionalPart of Xcolumns for formula columns. However, we do not sort these in before passing to the adapters. Normally, with formulas, this is not a problem as the columns are in the correct order but thetabifylogic mixes up the column order for formulas.The fix is to simply sort the columns in the table before passing it to the
adapters.Checklist
