    There is no real easy way to export the results.  There is no UI way to do it.

    You could bring up history and copy the text of the list view, and paste in document. but it's not pretty.

    If you mouse over the headers for the discovery profiles, you can goto Columns and choose ID.  This will expose the item_id of the discovery profile.

    With this ID, you can goto http://DA:8581/rest/discoveryprofiles/<ITEM_ID>  (or http://DA:8581/rest/tenant/<TENANT_ITEM_ID>/discoveryprofiles/<ITEM_ID>) to see the list of DiscoveryInstanceIDList
    If you choose the latest ID, you can goto http://DA:8581/rest/discoveryinstances/<ITEM_ID>  (or http://DA:8581/rest/tenant/<TENANT_ITEM_ID>/discoveryinstances/<ITEM_ID>) to see the UnreachableDevices (inaccessible) IPs, and other info.  If it's a new/existing device, we log the item_id of the device.

    As I said, not very easy, but that's how you can access the history raw data.

    21.2.6 will have CSV export on the discovery profile history view.
