Cannot export a single selection and related tables
It seems with HTML5 viewer you can't export on a single feature. Unfortunately some of our staff do this regularly, especially when there's linked tables providing 1:many data - they like to download to take out into the field. In SL you could export even a single record and it would zip up that record as a csv along with all related table data as other csv files - this would be a very useful enhancement for the HTML5 for us.

Our staff do this regularily as well, where 1:n data links are concerned. As of the HTML5 Viewer 2.9, and even the latest 2.12 according to a support call made on this, this is still not possible. The user has to either export all features in the identified layer & then manually remove the unwanted data from the XLSX file... or go back and re-identify the one particular feature they need the linked data for and export that new selection, losing the entire previous selection.
Some users, when viewing the single feature & its data in the "expanded view" (i.e. where the linked data is listed in tabular format similar to the "Table" view), don't see the "Export to..." option in the expanded view's context menu and assume it's impossible to export & therefore retrieve / make use of this type of data in the HTML5 Viewer.
Additionally, while the "Export to..." functionality does work when in the "Identify Results" table view (for multiple features)—proving that the linked data is accessible from this view—there is:- No identifier that shows there is any linked data for any of the features in the table;
- No tab that lets the user preview this linked data for their selection; and
- No way to access the linked data by clicking on the layer feature, like in the "List" view. Hovering over a feature highlights it on the map, but clicking simply doesn't do anything— making linked data virtually impossible to access from the table view within the HTML5 Viewer... it must be exported.
Here is a discussion relating to this functionality, which shows that other users have a need for these features as well.
