Export and Save .csv through Access Point

[jrl]

Is it possible to use the Export action item to save a .csv file?  I'm working through the Access Point so macros are not an option.  I have built a button that uses the 'Export' function and it can create the .csv, but it only seems to open it in another window as opposed to saving it to the desired location.  Any thoughts?

When using the server with browser, you can use the ServerSideExport API call in a macro to do the trick.

Unfortunately macros are not an option because we're using an AJAX plug-in

You can still use macros with Ajax, you just have to make sure to use the correct API calls. Hence the ServerSIdeExport recommendation. You'll need to use API calls that run on the server, not the client.

Just wanted to provide the API Guide for QlikView to you in case you decided to check out the API Rob mentioned.

QlikView API Guide QVW 

I am not quite sure what is not working for you regarding the Export action, which is what I think you are using, here is help link on that:

Click the Add Action Dialog link on the right side to jump down to the Actions area and scroll down until you see Export.  Sorry for the confusion on my part.

Hello,

Please I have thesame issues. I have the Qlikview client side access.
Using API requests, I am able to login and load the report but I don't know how to export the report as csv.

Can someone help with this, please? Maybe point me in the direction of the API document to achieve this, again it is from the client side.

Thank you.
