Wondering if there is a way to queue a data export definition from a logic block? Similar to how you can queue an event or app link? I need data exported specifically to a .txt file, using a data export definition seems to be the only way to achieve this - the downside is that I cannot run it on demand from a user facing application.

This is not currently supported. There is an idea for it in the Nextworld backlog and I will tag this thread to that idea.

Thanks Ian. The best workaround we have at the moment is to run a job scheduler on a recurring basis, not ideal for system load. Is there any way we could run a job scheduler on demand? For e.g. could I theoretically call the JobCompositionRunNow as a logic block API?
