Hi, as far as I know, there is no standard API to export Excel. The biggest problem is that there is no place to save it.

The easy way is to transfer files through some customization and Power Automate. Here are two simple examples, I hope they can give you some tips.

Hi,

Creating Configuration Packages is a great way to import/export table data in Business Central either initially from a legacy system, copying data from one company to another or ongoing importing and exporting for various reasons.

The reference Microsoft Documents:

Set Up Company Configuration Packages - Business Central | Microsoft Learn

Apply Company Configuration Packages - Business Central | Microsoft Learn

Hope it helps.

Best Regards,

Judy
