+::: tip Note
+When running your project using Docker, it is important to consider your current volume mounts. If you initiated your project using a template, it is likely that you already have Docker volumes mounted, typically defined in a `docker-compose.yaml` file as follows:
+
+```
+- ./:/app
+```
+
+To enable the export to function properly with `csv-dir` as the target folder, follow these steps:
+
+1. Create an empty folder named `csv-dir` in the root directory of your project.
+2. Specify `app` in the path of the parameter, so that the complete parameter appears as follows: `- --csv-out-dir=/app/csv-dir`
