Download Reports in CSV or pdf format

Question

Hi to all,
i'm trying to download a report in CSV format that implicate the list of more than 400.000 users and their resource assigned.
As i know, Sun IDM before generating this file is going to execute a task that return the list of this 400.000 users, and only after
that IDM ask me with a window alert if i want to only to "View" or if i want to "Save" the CSV file.
I noticed that in the moment that IDM is asking me if i want to save and where to save, i wasn't logged in IDM, so
i'm able to see only the task that is executed with success and the list of users in the task but any CSV or request to save CSV file.
Do you think that i need an open IDM session with the same IDM user that i execute the report in the moment to save the CSV?
And what about the task that was already executed: how can i download the CSV without executing another time the task?
Thanks in advance
Best Regards

I noticed that in the moment that IDM is asking me if i want to save
and where to save, i wasn't logged in IDM, so i'm able to see only the
task that is executed with success and the list of users in the task
but any CSV or request to save CSV file.The following method converts a finished report to a string in CSV format:
  public static String printReportsAsCSV(String taskName, String sep, Locale locale)
    throws WavesetException {
    TaskManager tm = Server.getServer().getTaskManager();
    RepositoryResult er = tm.getExtendedResult(taskName, null);
    if(er != null && er.hasNext()) {
      ReportRenderer rend = new ReportRenderer(locale);
      StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
      while(er.hasNext()) {
        TaskResult tr = (TaskResult)er.next().getObject();
        WavesetResult res = tr.getResult();
        if(res != null && res.getResults() != null && res.getResults().size() > 0) {
          Report report = (Report)res.getResult("report");
          rend.renderToSeparatedText(report, sb, sep);
          return sb.toString();
    return null;
  }Usage example:
System.out.println(printReportsAsCSV("All Admin Roles", ",", Locale.getDefault()));The report is stored in the repository as a TaskResult object, so you
can also export it in XML form and process with XSL or something.
Cheers,
