    Hey Gijs,

     

    What you're trying to do - exporting data from a report that is published to the web, is unfortunately not possible.

    This is possible in Report Server however. CSV -> PDF seems like it should be your best bet.

    Alternatively further slicing your data and then publishing should worK.

Hey Gijs,

 

You can't publish just one visual in it's entirety to PDF. What you could do is basically export the table to a CSV, open it up and then save it as a PDF. That should do it.

 

Mark this as solved if you were helped, if not let me know and I'll try and help you further.

        That's only possible for me in the desktop version and not online, and also others than me should be able to make a PDF of the table once the report is published.

        As well I do loose the formatting than ofcourse which is also not really what I like as there is quite some required conditional formatting in the table. So I am afraid this will be difficult unfortinately...
