Tags: #<Tag:0x00007efc72fa31e0>

Hello, I was just checking to see if there is a timeline/update for the ability to export to xls. It looks like it is in the backlog but wanted to see if there is any headwind for it or not. thanks.

Hey @mtowery

we’ve mentioned this subject on our yesterday’s meeting but haven’t scheduled it yet. Here is a list of ur current tasks https://github.com/handsontable/handsontable/milestones

While this feature is not available natively you can do like I did last week from this answer in SO.

You can use hot.getSourceData() (or hot.getData() if you don’t want the headers) to collect all data in a JSON object and then use the function JSONToCSVConverter() from the JSFiddle provided in that answer.

It worked for me, good luck!
