ExportSuccess event not working

Hi,

I had raised a ticket earlier, in response to which the ExportSuccess & ExportFailed events were exposed in the prior release of the Syncfusion library. Ticket details are here. However, I'm unable to get the ExportSuccess/ExportFailed events to fire in my application.

Would it be possible to send a sample application on how to use these events?

Thanks.

Hi Saurabh , 

Thank you for contacting Syncfusion support. 

We have exposed ExportSucess and ExportFailed and it will be triggered on exporting the form fields and annotations, 

We have shared the sample in which we have tried in the below link, 


Also the below events will be triggered on importing the form fields and the annotations, 


Please try with the latest version and revert us with more details about your issue and the modified sample if you still have concerns. These details will be helpful for us to investigate further and assist you better.

Akshaya

Hi Akshaya,

I was able to test out the new release, I can confirm that the issue appears resolved. Had one related question - when I call the export fields method, it is also exporting the fields as a JSON file and downloading into the browser. Is there a way to suppress this behavior? Basically, I'm using ExportFormFields to "save" the values in the form to a database, so the download of the JSON file every time does not make sense. I tried returning String.Empty, but then the ExportSuccess event never gets called. Let me know if there is a workaround.

Thanks.

Hi Saurabh, 

In our current implementation we will trigger the Export Success event only on saving the file as json. However we will check further on this query and update you with more details on August 25th 2020.

Hi Saurabh, 

We can achieve your requirement by exporting the form fields as json object using exportFormFieldsAsObject(), so that the json object will not be downloaded. However, the export success event is not triggering in that case, we will analyze further on it and update you with more details on September 2, 2020.

Thanks Akshaya - just to clarify, this will be for both ExportSuccess and ExportFailure events, both, correct? Meaning, if there is an error during the exportFormFieldsAsObject event, the export failure will get triggered.

Also, I was taking a fresh look at my overall implementation, and I think it would be a great future feature if the form fields are available at the client side. What I'm really trying to do is for the user to fill the form on the html page, and save back the values to a database. If there is a way to get those filled values on the client side, I can do an HTTP Post and save the values directly to the database, instead of going through the export events which seem to be meant for exporting the form fields to a different format. \

Let me know if if this makes sense.

Yes we will consider both ExportSuccess and ExportFailure events

We can get the form fields data in the client side using the exportFormFieldsAsObject() API and then you can save the values in database 


Please try it and if you still need further assistance revert us with more details about your requirement and the use case which will be helpful for us to investigate further and assist you better.
