Looking to export directly instead of preview

[david]

Currently have a report setup with a summary view and detail view. The summary view can have at the most 10 pages but if they go to detail it can have anywhere from 100-5000 pages. I have scoured through the web and I cant seem to find it, but I would like to have the report set to where if they choose "Detail" view, it won't render on the page but auto go to export to excel. Is this possible? At this point it can take longer than 4 minutes to render.

Hi, David,

I believe that the following KB article may be suitable for generating the report without the necessity of previewing it: Generating Reports Locally with Code. Please give it a try and let me know whether it would be applicable for the scenario you need to cover.

On a side note, you have a Telerik Report Server license. If you use this product, please, be aware of the following:

Reminder regarding recent Telerik Report Server security updates. An exploit script, related to two separate vulnerabilities CVE-2024-4358 and CVE-2024-1800, was publicly published by a security researcher. If you have not yet updated to 2024 Q2 (10.1.24.514), we urge you to immediately upgrade Report Server to 2024 Q2 or apply the temporary mitigation.

I hope this information helps. If you need any further assistance please don't hesitate to contact me.
