Use WinForm Telerik Reports in Web API

[Ankush]

Hi,

I have telerik reports in WinForm project. I have another project which is WebApp in Angular & Web API as well. I want to give a "Download" option to my WebApp. On click of that button, i want to download telerik report in pdf format. I don't want to re-create my all telerik report in Angular project. Please suggest me a better solution.

Thanks

Hi Ankush,

Depending on your specific requirements, this could be accomplished through the built-in features of the HTML5 Report Viewer. 

Another option is discussed in the Print Report without Viewing It forum post. A sample of this is included with the KB article titled, Print the Report on the Client without Displaying the Viewer. Note that, with this option, the confirmation of the print operation cannot be avoided due to security reasons. 

If you would like to avoid the print operation confirmation, this can be achieved by Programmatically Exporting a Report to a Folder for Download and subsequently downloading the report on a button click from your Angular application.

Please let me know if you have any additional questions. Thank you for choosing Telerik Reporting.
