If I change the index pattern to a specific index name like 'prod-idx-event-2020.12.15', reports can be generated and downloaded successfully.

I have this same error

Hi I am able to reproduce this issue, seems like the csv logic doesn't apply to saved search with index pattern. It sounds like something important that we missed. We'll look into that.

Facing the same issue

Thanks for looking into it and for the prompt fix.
I merged the diff into my installation and confirm that the report generating issue with wildcard index patterns has been fixed.
Great work!

@zhongnansu are there any plans to release this fix as a part of a patch release, or do we have to wait for the next minor release of ODFE?

This should be part of the next release in early feb.
