Bulk CSV export - option to use the SF Bulk API

[juanlu-interdiscount]

In workbench is possible to type a SOQL query and select what to do with the result set: whether it should be displayed in the UI (e.g. List), which uses the regular SF REST API, or downloaded to a CSV file, "Bulk CSV", which uses the SF Bulk API.

In SF Inspector reloaded we do have buttons to copy the Result Set to the clipboard in either Excel or CSV format. The problem is when you want to perform a mass export, i.e. query millions of records and save them in a CSV file. There is no option for using the SF Bulk API. Ideally, it should be easy to just click on a button or link once the job is finished, so that the csv is downloaded to your computer. The copying to the clipboard with huge result sets can be problematic.
