I am receiving the following error when attempting to export my grid to Excel. Can you help me figure out what I'm missing?

};

DashboardsApiController rdbController = new DashboardsApiController();

var dashboards = rdbController.GetDashboards();

GridProperties obj = ConvertGridObject(GridModel);

obj.ExcelColumnTemplateInfo = TemplateInfo;

exp.Export(obj, dashboards, GridExp);

}

Hi Megan,

Thanks for using Syncfusion products.

From your query, we understand you are facing issue while exporting the Grid with template. We have prepared a sample and we are able to reproduce the reported issue while using your code example. We have deprecated the property called the templateID. Instead you can use template property of ejGrid to define the id of script tag.

Refer the below code example

$("#Grid").ejGrid({

// the datasource "window.employeeView" is referred from jsondata.min.js

dataSource: ej.DataManager(window.employeeView).executeLocal(ej.Query().take(8)),

allowPaging: true,

pageSettings: { pageSize: 4 },

columns: [

{ headerText: "Employee Image", template: "#columnTemplate", textAlign: "center", width: 110 },

{ field: "EmployeeID", headerText: "Employee ID", isPrimarykey: true, editType: ej.Grid.EditingType.NumericEdit, textAlign: ej.TextAlign.Right, width: 90 },

{ field: "FirstName", headerText: "First Name", width: 90 },

{ field: "LastName", headerText: "Last Name", width: 90 },

{ field: "BirthDate", headerText: "Birth Date", width: 90, format: "{0:MM/dd/yyyy}", textAlign: ej.TextAlign.Right },

{ field: "Country", headerText: "Country", width: 80 }

]

});

Refer the below link for the release notes regarding the deprecated properties
