I'd like to be able to export the Broken Links report to either a CSV or Excel file, so that it can be handed off to someone else for fixing. It would be nice to have this without doing a direct database dump.

Thanks,
Erik

Are you going to ask next week for an import of the corrected data? :-)

I do not really see the real use case if you export only... please shed some light to me. Please provide a patch.

It would be easier to give to a non-admin, so that they can take them and delete line-by-line when the links are corrected rather than waiting for the cron jobs to catch up. It's a minor improvement, but in the situation of how my organization manages our web site, it would be helpful. I'll work on a patch next week.

Thanks,
Erik

You do not need to wait for the next cron job. After the link has been corrected in all comments, nodes, blocks having this link it immediately disappear from the broken links report list. Sounds like a duplicate of #381986: Broken link does not immediately disappear in broken links list after link has been fixed in content

Automatically closed -- issue fixed for 2 weeks with no activity.

Another use case is to create summaries of link status in Excel or other software that can ingest CSV. =) For now I will have to export the MySQL table to CSV so we can build some stats from our 5,000 broken links (95 pages' worth!)

Just opening this up.

If this were all exposed as a View then we could just use the CSV export to pull down this data.

There is already a view case open.

If anyone is looking for it, it's #965720: Views integration for Broken Links report.
