Hi ... I don't think there is a command available to "export" the hole table content.

I use my ui-table handler subflow to take care of all the tasks around ui-table.

it holds a copy of your table-data, tabel edits and table config (useful for replay on browser reconnects)

and you can export the table context too ... (merged tableEdit into tableData)

this is the latest Version:

You can find it in my homie-device-table and syslog-server. (older versions)

a `msg.payload.command="getTable"` should give you the table array on the second output

The doc (help tab) is not 100% up to date but should do the task
