Export attachments with associated data
I've had a request for a feature which would allow for the bulk export of attachments (images) with the details of the associated observation data linked to it for use in other tools. Also Patrol ID would be needed in the export for each attachment as well.
Currently, after querying, we can export the attachment only, without details of the associated observation.
For example, an observation query of "live animals - species = lion" provides attachments which can be exported and either (1) have some identifying feature in the file name (i.e. attachment_incident_5_query_live_animal_species_lion_may42022) or have a unique identifier which can somehow be incorporated in the CSV export of that query (i.e. an attachment column with the UI for the specific attachment(s)), and also allow for the bulk export of attachments which can then be associated afterwards.

I've seen comments in the forumn linking this above task with this one also:

The long forumn discussion is here: https://forum.smartconservationtools.org/t/how-to-export-attachments/855/13
I'm not sure it is particularly related, but it might be worth reviewing. If there are some aspects of those concerns we can address at the same time we should try.
