Exporting in Angular Schedule component

26 Sep 202324 minutes to read

The Scheduler supports exporting all its appointments both to an Excel or ICS extension file at client-side. It offers different client-side methods to export its appointments in an Excel or ICal format file. Let’s look onto the ways on how to implement the exporting functionality in Scheduler.

Excel Exporting

The Scheduler allows you to export all its events into an Excel format file by using the [exportToExcel] client-side method. By default, it exports all the default fields of Scheduler mapped through eventSettings property.

Before you start with excel exporting functionality, you need to import and inject the ExcelExport module from the ‘@syncfusion/ej2-schedule’ package using the Inject method of Scheduler.

import { Component, ViewChild, ViewEncapsulation } from '@angular/core';
import { ScheduleComponent, EventSettingsModel, WeekService, View, ActionEventArgs, ToolbarActionArgs, ExportOptions, ExcelExportService  } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-schedule';
import { ItemModel } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-navigations';
import { scheduleData } from './datasource';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-root',
  providers: [WeekService, ExcelExportService],
  // specifies the template string for the Schedule component
  template: `<ejs-schedule #scheduleObj width='100%' height='550px' [views]="scheduleViews" [selectedDate]="selectedDate" [eventSettings]="eventSettings"  cssClass='schedule-excel-export' [currentView]="currentView" (actionBegin)="onActionBegin($event)">
  <e-views><e-view option='Week' ></e-view></e-views></ejs-schedule>`,
  styleUrls: ['./index.css'],
  encapsulation: ViewEncapsulation.None
})
export class AppComponent {
  @ViewChild('scheduleObj')
  public scheduleObj?: ScheduleComponent;
  public selectedDate: Date = new Date(2019, 0, 10);
  public scheduleViews: View[] = ['Week'];
  public currentView: View = 'Week';
  public eventSettings: EventSettingsModel = { dataSource: scheduleData };
  public onActionBegin(args: ActionEventArgs & ToolbarActionArgs): void {
    if (args.requestType === 'toolbarItemRendering') {
      const exportItem: ItemModel = {
        align: 'Right', showTextOn: 'Both', prefixIcon: 'e-icon-schedule-excel-export',
        text: 'Excel Export', cssClass: 'e-excel-export', click: this.onExportClick.bind(this)
      };
      args.items?.push(exportItem);
    }
  }

  public onExportClick(): void {
    this.scheduleObj?.exportToExcel();
  }
 }
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { ScheduleModule } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-schedule';
import { ButtonModule } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-buttons';
import { DayService, WeekService, WorkWeekService, MonthService, AgendaService, MonthAgendaService} from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-schedule';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';

Excel Exporting

Exporting with custom fields

By default, Scheduler exports all the default event fields that are mapped to it through the eventSettings property. To limit the number of fields on the exported excel file, it provides an option to export only the custom fields of the event data. To export such custom fields alone, define the required fields through the ExportOptions interface and pass it as argument to the exportToExcel method as shown in the following example. For example: ['Id', 'Subject', 'StartTime', 'EndTime', 'Location'].

import { Component, ViewChild, ViewEncapsulation } from '@angular/core';
import { ScheduleComponent, EventSettingsModel, WeekService, View, ActionEventArgs, ToolbarActionArgs, ExportOptions, ExcelExportService  } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-schedule';
import { ItemModel } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-navigations';
import { scheduleData } from './datasource';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-root',
  providers: [WeekService, ExcelExportService],
  // specifies the template string for the Schedule component
  template: `<ejs-schedule #scheduleObj width='100%' height='550px' [views]="scheduleViews" [selectedDate]="selectedDate" cssClass='schedule-excel-export'  [eventSettings]="eventSettings" [currentView]="currentView" (actionBegin)="onActionBegin($event)">
  <e-views><e-view option='Week' ></e-view></e-views></ejs-schedule>`,
  styleUrls: ['./index.css'],
  encapsulation: ViewEncapsulation.None
})
export class AppComponent {
  @ViewChild('scheduleObj')
  public scheduleObj?: ScheduleComponent;
  public selectedDate: Date = new Date(2019, 0, 10);
  public scheduleViews: View[] = ['Week'];
  public currentView: View = 'Week';
  public eventSettings: EventSettingsModel = { dataSource: scheduleData };
  public onActionBegin(args: ActionEventArgs & ToolbarActionArgs): void {
    if (args.requestType === 'toolbarItemRendering') {
      const exportItem: ItemModel = {
        align: 'Right', showTextOn: 'Both', prefixIcon: 'e-icon-schedule-excel-export',
        text: 'Excel Export', cssClass: 'e-excel-export', click: this.onExportClick.bind(this)
      };
      args.items?.push(exportItem);
    }
  }

  public onExportClick(): void {
    const exportValues: ExportOptions = { fields: ['Id', 'Subject', 'StartTime', 'EndTime', 'Location'] };
    this.scheduleObj?.exportToExcel(exportValues);
  }
 }

Excel Exporting with custom Fields

Exporting individual occurrences of a recurring series

By default, the Scheduler exports recurring events as a single data by exporting only its parent record into the excel file. If you want to export each individual occurrences of a recurring series appointment as separate records in an Excel file, define the includeOccurrences option as true through the ExportOptions interface and pass it as argument to the exportToExcel method. By default, the includeOccurrences option is set to false.

import { Component, ViewChild, ViewEncapsulation } from '@angular/core';
import { ScheduleComponent, EventSettingsModel, WeekService, View, ActionEventArgs, ToolbarActionArgs, ExportOptions, ExcelExportService  } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-schedule';
import { ItemModel } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-navigations';
import { scheduleData } from './datasource';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-root',

  public scheduleViews: View[] = ['Week'];
  public currentView: View = 'Week';
  public eventSettings: EventSettingsModel = { dataSource: scheduleData };
  public onActionBegin(args: ActionEventArgs & ToolbarActionArgs): void {
    if (args.requestType === 'toolbarItemRendering') {
      const exportItem: ItemModel = {
        align: 'Right', showTextOn: 'Both', prefixIcon: 'e-icon-schedule-excel-export',

Exporting custom event data

By default, the whole event collection bound to the Scheduler gets exported as an excel file. To export only specific events of Scheduler or some custom event collection, you need to pass those custom data collection as a parameter to the exportToExcel method as shown in this following example, through the customData option of ExportOptions interface.

By default, the event data are taken from Scheduler dataSource.

import { Component, ViewChild, ViewEncapsulation } from '@angular/core';
import { ScheduleComponent, EventSettingsModel, WeekService, View, ActionEventArgs, ToolbarActionArgs, ExportOptions, ExcelExportService  } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-schedule';

  public scheduleObj?: ScheduleComponent;
  public selectedDate: Date = new Date(2019, 0, 10);
  public scheduleViews: View[] = ['Week'];
  public currentView: View = 'Week';
  public eventSettings: EventSettingsModel = { dataSource: scheduleData };
  public onActionBegin(args: ActionEventArgs & ToolbarActionArgs): void {
    if (args.requestType === 'toolbarItemRendering') {
      const exportItem: ItemModel = {
        align: 'Right', showTextOn: 'Both', prefixIcon: 'e-icon-schedule-excel-export',
        text: 'Excel Export', cssClass: 'e-excel-export', click: this.onExportClick.bind(this)
      };
      args.items?.push(exportItem);
    }
  }

  public onExportClick(): void {
    const exportValues: ExportOptions = {
        customData: [{
            Id: 1,
            Subject: 'Explosion of Betelgeuse Star',
            Location: 'Space Centre USA',
            StartTime: new Date(2019, 0, 6, 9, 30),

Customizing column header with custom fields exporting

Using fields property, we can only export the defined fields into excel without customizing the header. Now we can provide the alternate support to customize the header of custom fields exporting using the fieldsInfo option through the ExportFieldInfo interface and pass it as an argument to the exportToExcel method as shown in the following example.

import { Component, ViewChild, ViewEncapsulation } from '@angular/core';
import {
  ScheduleComponent, EventSettingsModel, WeekService, View, ActionEventArgs, ToolbarActionArgs, ExportOptions,
  ExportFieldInfo, ExcelExportService
} from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-schedule';

  public eventSettings: EventSettingsModel = { dataSource: scheduleData };
  public onActionBegin(args: ActionEventArgs & ToolbarActionArgs): void {

      };
      args.items?.push(exportItem);
    }
  }

  public onExportClick(): void {
    const customFields: ExportFieldInfo[] = [

        { name: 'StartTime', text: 'First Date' },
        { name: 'EndTime', text: 'Last Date' },
        { name: 'Location', text: 'Place' },
        { name: 'OwnerId', text: 'Owners' }
    ];

Excel Exporting with custom header texts

Export with custom file name

By default, the Scheduler allows you to download the exported Excel file with a name Schedule.xlsx. It also provides an option to export the excel file with a custom file name, by defining the desired fileName through the ExportOptions interface and passing it as an argument to the exportToExcel method.

import { Component, ViewChild, ViewEncapsulation } from '@angular/core';
import { ScheduleComponent, EventSettingsModel, WeekService, View, ActionEventArgs, ToolbarActionArgs, ExportOptions, ExcelExportService  } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-schedule';
import { ItemModel } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-navigations';

Excel file formats

By default, the Scheduler exports event data to an excel file in the .xlsx format. You can also export the Scheduler data in either of the file type such as .xlsx or csv formats, by defining the exportType option as either csv or xlsx through the ExportOptions interface. By default, the exportType is set to xlsx.

Exporting calendar events as ICS file

You can export the Scheduler events to a calendar (.ics) file format, and open it on any of the other default calendars such as Google or Outlook. To export the events of Scheduler to an ICS file, you need to first import the ICalendarExport module from @syncfusion/ej2-schedule package and then inject it using the Schedule.Inject(ICalendarExport) method.

The following code example shows how the Scheduler events are exported to a calendar (.ics) file by making use of the exportToICalendar public method.

import { Component, ViewChild } from '@angular/core';
import { ScheduleComponent, EventSettingsModel, View, DayService, DragAndDropService,
  WeekService, WorkWeekService, MonthService, AgendaService, ICalendarExportService, ICalendarImportService, ResizeService } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-schedule';
import { scheduleData } from './datasource';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-root',
  providers: [DayService, WeekService, WorkWeekService, MonthService, AgendaService, ResizeService,
    ICalendarExportService, ICalendarImportService, DragAndDropService],
  // specifies the template string for the Schedule component
  template: `<button ejs-button id="ics-export" type="button" (click)="onExportClick()">Export</button>
<ejs-schedule #scheduleObj width='100%' height='550px' [views]="scheduleViews" [selectedDate]="selectedDate" [eventSettings]="eventSettings" [currentView]="currentView" >
  </ejs-schedule>`
})
export class AppComponent {
  @ViewChild('scheduleObj', { static: true })
  public scheduleObj?: ScheduleComponent;
  public selectedDate: Date = new Date(2018, 1, 15);
  public scheduleViews: View[] = ['Day', 'Week', 'WorkWeek', 'Month', 'Agenda'];
  public eventSettings: EventSettingsModel = { dataSource: scheduleData };
  public currentView: View = 'Week';

  public onExportClick(): void {
    this.scheduleObj?.exportToICalendar();
  }
 }

Exporting calendar with custom file name

By default, the calendar is exported with a file name Calendar.ics. To change this file name on export, pass the custom string value as fileName to the method argument so as to get the file downloaded with this provided name.

The following example downloads the iCal file with a name ScheduleEvents.ics.

import { Component, ViewChild } from '@angular/core';
import { ScheduleComponent, EventSettingsModel, View, DayService, DragAndDropService,
  WeekService, WorkWeekService, MonthService, AgendaService, ICalendarExportService, ICalendarImportService, ResizeService } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-schedule';
import { scheduleData } from './datasource';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-root',
  providers: [DayService, WeekService, WorkWeekService, MonthService, AgendaService, ResizeService,
    ICalendarExportService, ICalendarImportService, DragAndDropService],
  // specifies the template string for the Schedule component
  template: `<button ejs-button id="ics-export" type="button" (click)="onExportClick()">Export</button>
<ejs-schedule #scheduleObj width='100%' height='550px' [views]="scheduleViews" [selectedDate]="selectedDate" [eventSettings]="eventSettings" [currentView]="currentView" >
  <e-views><e-view option='Week' ></e-view></e-views></ejs-schedule>`
})
export class AppComponent {
  @ViewChild('scheduleObj')
  public scheduleObj?: ScheduleComponent;
  public selectedDate: Date = new Date(2018, 1, 15);
  public scheduleViews: View[] = ['Day', 'Week', 'WorkWeek', 'Month', 'Agenda'];
  public eventSettings: EventSettingsModel = { dataSource: scheduleData };
  public currentView: View = 'Week';

  public onExportClick=(): void =>{
    this.scheduleObj?.exportToICalendar('ScheduleEvents');
  }
 }

Import events from other calendars

The events from external calendars (ICS files) can be imported into Scheduler by using the importICalendar method. This method accepts the blob object of an .ics file to be imported, as a mandatory argument.

To import an ICS file containing events into Scheduler, you need to first import the ICalendarImport module from @syncfusion/ej2-schedule package and then inject it using the Schedule.Inject(ICalendarImport) method.

The following example shows how to import an ICS file into Scheduler, using the importICalendar method.

import { Component, ViewChild } from '@angular/core';
import { ScheduleComponent, EventSettingsModel, View, DayService, DragAndDropService,
  WeekService, WorkWeekService, MonthService, AgendaService, ICalendarExportService, ICalendarImportService, ResizeService } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-schedule';
import { scheduleData } from './datasource';
import { SelectedEventArgs } from '@syncfusion/ej2-inputs';

  selector: 'app-root',
  providers: [DayService, WeekService, WorkWeekService, MonthService, AgendaService, ResizeService,
    ICalendarExportService, ICalendarImportService, DragAndDropService],
  // specifies the template string for the Schedule component
  template: `<ejs-uploader id='ics-import' cssClass='calendar-import' [multiple]='multiple' [buttons]='buttons'

How to print the Scheduler element

The Scheduler allows you to print the Scheduler element by using the print client-side method. The print method works in two ways. You can find it below.

  • Using print method without options.
  • Using a print method with options.

To print the Schedule, you need to import the PrintService module from the @syncfusion/ej2-angular-schedule package and then inject it using providers:[PrintService].

Using print method without options

You can print the Schedule element with the current view by using the print method without passing the options. The following example shows how to print the Scheduler using the print method without passing options.

import { ItemModel } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-navigations';
import { ScheduleComponent, EventSettingsModel, ActionEventArgs, ToolbarActionArgs, View, PrintService,
  DayService, WeekService, WorkWeekService, MonthService, AgendaService } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-schedule';
import { Component, ViewChild, ViewEncapsulation } from '@angular/core';
import { scheduleData } from './datasource';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-root',
  providers: [DayService, WeekService, WorkWeekService, MonthService, AgendaService, PrintService],
  // specifies the template string for the Schedule component
  template: `<ejs-schedule #scheduleObj id="schedule" cssClass='schedule-print' width='100%' height='550px' [selectedDate]="selectedDate" [eventSettings]="eventSettings" (actionBegin)="onActionBegin($event)"></ejs-schedule>`
})
export class AppComponent {
  @ViewChild('scheduleObj')
  public scheduleObj?: ScheduleComponent;
  public selectedDate: Date = new Date(2018, 1, 15);
  public eventSettings: EventSettingsModel = { dataSource: scheduleData };

  public onActionBegin(args: ActionEventArgs & ToolbarActionArgs): void {
    if (args.requestType === 'toolbarItemRendering') {
      const exportItem: ItemModel = {
        align: 'Right', showTextOn: 'Both', prefixIcon: 'e-icon-schedule-print',
        text: 'Print', cssClass: 'e-print', click: this.onPrintIconClick.bind(this)
      };
      args.items?.push(exportItem);
    }
  }

  public onPrintIconClick(): void {
    this.scheduleObj?.print();
  }
 }
