Perspective Excel download

[Tokyo_mht]

Hi , I have created a file resource named 'abc.xlsx' and datatype as ''application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet " in Webdev. launching this resource directly it will download excel file.
However ,I need to trigger this download via button click in a perspective view.
How can I achieve this?

If you want that file specifically as stored you can use system.perspective.navigate(url="http://127.0.0.1:8088/system/webdev/Project_Name/abc.xlsx")

it will automatically download it to your downloads folder.

You can use httpGet as well if you have a template and want to rename/edit the contents in some way.

Import one Excel template in Web Dev and for on click on download that in Perspective

Sorry for the delayed response. Please try and reply by hitting the reply button under the post you are responding to so they get notified. I think you would just need to do an httpGet of the filepath and then convert that to a bytearray for the system.perspective.download to function properly.

You could also use system.perspective.download() in a button's actionPerformed event script. If you only need the file to be available this way, then you do not need WebDev at all.
