How to save radspreadsheet on server

[JF]

var $ = $telerik.$;
 var spreadsheet = $find("<%= RadSpreadSheet1.ClientID %>");
spreadsheet.save();

 

This code is not working.  No error generated and the spreadsheet is never saved, tough saveAsExcel is working as advertised.

 

Any hint someone?

Hello,

You could create a custom content provider where you need to implement the Save method: http://docs.telerik.com/devtools/aspnet-ajax/controls/spreadsheet/data-binding/providers/custom-database-provider.

Alternatively, as you have already noticed, you can save the file on the client by using the underlying Kendo Spreadsheet widget directly with JavaScript: http://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/api/javascript/ui/spreadsheet#methods-saveAsExcel. Something like:

$telerik.$("#<%=RadSpreadsheet1.ClientID%>").data("kendoSpreadsheet").saveAsExcel();

Is anyone have fixed this issue? I need to save the excel into server not to client.

Hello Joseph,

If you use the built-in provider, it will read from and write to the designated file in the web application, you can see this in our demos: https://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/spreadsheet/examples/overview/defaultcs.aspx.

If you need to change that or have an entirely user-generated file, you can follow this KB on saving it on the server without really needing a full custom provider: https://www.telerik.com/support/kb/aspnet-ajax/spreadsheet/details/access-the-spreadsheet-workbook-on-the-server.
