How to export data table with description value, not coded value for fields with domains

Question

I have the Feature Info widget in my EB application and it shows the data records of a hosted feature layer.  When using the Export Records action of that widget, the exported CSV file shows the codes and not the descriptions for fields that have domains.  Is there a way to make the CSV export table contain the description instead of the code for those fields?  My application users will be confused by the code values that get exported.

I noticed a curious thing about this issue at the end of the day yesterday.  If I create an application from Web AppBuilder that includes my hosted feature layer and includes the Table widget, and I export all the records to CSV from the table, then value descriptions (not codes) are in the output CSV.

This is exactly what I want.  Except that there was a reason why I didn't use Web AppBuilder in the first place - cannot remember that reason at the moment, so I don't plan to attempt recreating the application in Web AppBuilder.

It would be great if Experience Builder had parity with Web AppBuilder with regard to attribute table exporting to CSV.

I sure hope not but that may be what I am forced to do.  I'll likely hit up Esri Tech Support in a couple days to see what they know about it.

Ah, I understand. I wonder if you could create a derived description field in the source data or with Arcade as a last resort.
