Excel export in Angular Pivot Table component

27 Apr 202424 minutes to read

The Excel export allows pivot table data to export as Excel document. To enable Excel export in the pivot table, set the allowExcelExport as true. You need to use the excelExport method for Excel exporting.

Multiple pivot table exporting

The Excel export provides an option to export multiple pivot table data in the same Excel file.

Same WorkSheet

The Excel export provides support to export multiple pivot tables in same sheet. To export in same sheet, define multipleExport.type as AppendToSheet in ExcelExportProperties. It has an option to provide blank rows between pivot tables and these blank row(s) count can be defined using themultipleExport.blankRows property.

By default, multipleExport.blankRows value is 5 between pivot tables within the same sheet.

New WorkSheet

Excel export provides support to export multiple pivot tables into new sheets. To export in new sheets, define multipleExport.type as NewSheet in ExcelExportProperties.

Changing the pivot table style while exporting

The Excel export provides an option to change colors for headers, caption and records in pivot table before exporting. In-order to apply colors, define theme settings in excelExportProperties object and pass it as a parameter to the excelExport method.

By default, material theme is applied to exported Excel document.

Limitation when exporting millions of records to Excel format

By default, Microsoft Excel supports only 1,048,576 records in an Excel sheet. Hence, it is not possible to export millions of records to Excel. You can refer to the documentation link for more details on Microsoft Excel specifications and limits. Therefore, it is suggested to export the data in CSV (Comma-Separated Values) or other formats that can handle large datasets more efficiently than Excel.

CSV Export

Also, the Excel export allows pivot table data to be exported in CSV file format. To export pivot table in CSV file format, you need to use the csvExport method.

Virtual Scroll Data

You can export the pivot table virtual scroll data as Excel/CSV document by using PivotEngine export without any performance degradation. To enable PivotEngine export in the pivot table, set the allowExcelExport as true. You need to use the exportToExcel method for PivotEngine export.

To use PivotEngine export, You need to inject the ExcelExport module in pivot table.
PivotEngine export will be performed while enabling virtual scrolling by default.

Export all pages

The pivot engine exports the entire virtual data of the pivot table (i.e. the data that contains all of the records used to render the complete pivot table) as an Excel/CSV document. To export just the current viewport of the pivot table, set the exportAllPages property to false. To use the pivot engine export, add the ExcelExport module into the pivot table.

By default, the pivot engine export will be performed while virtual scrolling is enabled.

ExportComplete

The event exportComplete is triggered after the pivot table data has been exported to an Excel/CSV document. You can use this event to acquire blob stream data for further customization and processing at your end by passing the isBlob parameter as true when using the excelExport method. It has the following parameters:

  • type - It holds the current export type such as PDF, Excel, and CSV.
  • promise - It holds the promise object for blob data.
