&lt;p&gt;The current ways (including Export DSE to Excel, and even the two deprecated smart services in the Excel Tools plug-in that provide various functionality not yet added to &lt;em&gt;Export DSE...&lt;/em&gt;) are much easier and more reliable but do require one click to do the generation, populate a variable with the document ID, then display of a download link that the user must then click on.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Provide excel download functionality on button click.</title><link>https://community.appian.com/thread/82113?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 27 May 2021 11:05:58 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">d3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:7cc48a67-6e7c-4424-ab7f-36ba97376327</guid><dc:creator>sahilb704</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;That&amp;#39;s a report so I can&amp;#39;t load the excel before that&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Provide excel download functionality on button click.</title><link>https://community.appian.com/thread/82111?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 27 May 2021 10:59:40 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">d3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:dcd073d7-0c4a-413e-8eb2-ee01c4718829</guid><dc:creator>Mathieu Drouin</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Not possible unless you pre-generate the excel before the user lands on the page.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
