Create Excel sheets on button click

Posted on by 595

Hello All,

We have a requirement in which there will be several marketing lists in the Campaign entity and with a button click the selected marketing list should be exported to excel.

Is it possible to export to Excel  using plugin?

Any ideas / suggestions ?

    Take a look at the ClosedXml open source project. github.com/.../closedxml

    You can combine ClosedXml's .NET assembly with a CRM plug-in DLL using ILMerge. You can then create an Excel file in memory within the plug-in and stream it out to a file, attachment within CRM, to SharePoint, etc.

    Hi

    You could place a Button on the ribbon using the Ribbon Workbench and have it call a plugin that will get all records and export them, You would need a Dev to do this for you
