Currently, you can change columns in data views using sort order number. However, you cannot change the order of data columns in data feed exports. It would be great if you could change the order of columns in data feed exports as well.

Currently, data feed export is displaying columns by Element ID (when the element was created/added to the form).

  Thanks for bringing it up, you have a raised a good point and we will definitely put some brains behind it. We will have to do some research on how the changes would impact some other integration's. We will track this via an internal ticketing system.

  Hi Beth & Sara,

  I created this post on behalf of our customers and I was just given an explanation for the behavior of the export.

  For a bit of background, we intentionally do not re-order the tables as it was causing headaches when the table structure was large and there was a lot of data. If we do not re-order the table then it adds extra time to sort the data before we export, resulting in fewer rows that can be processed before we run out of time.

  We want to give our customers what they ask for, but we also would like to keep performance a the top of our mind. Please keep following this post to get notified of any updates as we research and find different approaches to this request.

  Thanks,
  Stella
