Title: How to download Column Chart Field as PNG with chart labels in Appian?

Hi Team,

I am using a Column Chart Field in Appian interface and I want to provide an option for users to download the chart as a PNG image.

My requirement is:

  • Download the complete column chart as a PNG file

  • Include chart labels/data labels in the downloaded image

  • Maintain the chart formatting and visibility

Could anyone suggest:

  1. Is this possible using native Appian functionality?

  2. Are there any plugins or JavaScript approaches available?

  3. Has anyone implemented chart export/download functionality in Appian interfaces?

Any suggestions or sample approaches would be helpful.

Thanks!

The column chart component directly supports image download.

Thanks for your response. I need the chart label to be present in the downloaded png. But while clicking on the download button, the downloaded image doesn't have the label. I need this label to be present in the downloaded png. but it is missing that.

Column Chart Field does not support PNG export with labels out of the box.
Try this plugin once
