Exporting to Excel - Documentation is incomplete

[Matteo]

Grid Excel export toolbar on click method:

public toolbarClick = (args: ClickEventArgs) => {
    if (this.grid && args.item.id === 'grid_excelexport') {
        this.grid.excelExport();
    }
  }

This was taken from the documentation, except that, args.item.id is 'grid_excelexport' only if the grid id is "grid", if I don't set grid ID or in the case of a child grid, the grid ID is dynamic and it is not possible to intercept the call.

Hi Matteo, 

 

Thanks for contacting Syncfusion support. 

 

In toolbarClick event we suggest you ensure with text value for Excel, PDF and Word Exporting. For more information, please refer the below code example: 

 

 

toolbarClick(args) { 

        switch (args.item.text) { 

            case 'PDF Export': 

                this.gridInstance.pdfExport(); 

                break; 

            case 'Excel Export': 

                this.gridInstance.excelExport(); 

                break; 

            case 'CSV Export': 

                this.gridInstance.csvExport(); 

                break; 

        } 

    }
