encodeExecutableContent

Specifies if the CSV export routine saves potentially dangerous content as plain text data.

Type:

Boolean

Default Value: false

Exported spreadsheet documents can be unsafe because executable content (such as formulas) may include malicious code. A spreadsheet application can execute this code if a user opens such a file and confirms that the application can load and execute dynamic content.

Enable this property to ensure that exported CSV files are safe for loading in third-party spreadsheet applications.

keepColumnWidths

Specifies whether Excel columns should have the same width as their source UI component's columns.

Type:

Boolean

Default Value: true

loadPanel

Configures the load panel.

Type:

Object

mergeColumnFieldValues

Specifies whether to merge neighbouring cells in the column field if they have the same values.

Type:

Boolean

Default Value: true

The following image shows the exported pivot grid if you set this property to true or leave it unspecified:

DevExtreme PivotGrid: mergeColumnFieldValues set to true

In the image below, the mergeColumnFieldValues property is set to false:

DevExtreme PivotGrid: mergeColumnFieldValues set to false

mergeRowFieldValues

Specifies whether to merge neighbouring cells in the row field if they have the same values.

Type:

Boolean

Default Value: true

The following image shows exported pivot grid if you set this property to true or leave it unspecified:

DevExtreme PivotGrid: mergeRowFieldValues set to true

In the image below, the mergeRowFieldValues property is set to false:

DevExtreme PivotGrid: mergeRowFieldValues set to false

topLeftCell

A cell used as a start position for export.

Type:

Object

|

String

Default Value: { row: 1, column: 1 }

The cell is specified using coordinates in the Excel document. For example, the following code specifies cell B2:

DevExpress.excelExporter.exportPivotGrid({
    // ...  
    topLeftCell: { row: 2, column: 2 } 
});

You can also specify the topLeftCell using the Excel notation:

DevExpress.excelExporter.exportPivotGrid({
    // ...  
    topLeftCell: "B2" 
});

worksheet

An Excel worksheet to which the grid should be exported.

Type:

Object

Default Value: undefined

A worksheet is a part of a workbook. Refer to the ExcelJS documentation for information on how to create a workbook and add a worksheet to it.
