download excel report from temporary community document folder to local drive

sudhirp712 over 7 years ago

Hi ,

We have created a process model which will extract the report from querydatabase and export it to excel and save it under temporary document folder in community section.

We need to add this to report tab in tempo page as XYZ Report. Users needs to click on XYZ Report and the excel generated report could be downloadable and save this to local drive.

Could anyone help us and let us know how to do it.

Attached the process model.

@sudhirp I have mentioned few approaches at https://forum.appian.com/suite/tempo/entry/e-254197 in my initial comments. I would like to suggest choosing an approach based on the amount of data you are trying to pull rather than just sticking with Download datasubset implementation. You may also take a look at web-api in the case if you would like to opt for downloadable link style implementation as it keeps things simple IMO when compared to Downloadable data subset plugin.

Also, I would like to add that the model you have had can be reused depending on the approach you have opted for. For instance, this process model can't be reused if the approach you have opted for is Dowloadable data subset plugin.

Let us know in case if you have any follow up questions.
