Peter Boelke How to use Quick action for export?
Hello,
i need a quick action button to export contact data as csv. I have created a visualforce page which is related to a quick action button. But it doesnt really work proper.

This is a blog post for export data in lightning on button click.
you can create your excel file by directly calling <aura:handler init

and use this component on quick action button.
