XLS Export from datas generated on page load (nothing in database)

    Hi,
    It seems your plugin does a great job exporting XLS files.
    I would like to know if there is a way to “populate” XLS files (CSV either) with data I generate on page load, data I get from external APIs requests ?
    Is this something customizable from your plugin ?

    Waiting for your reply
    Thanks in advance,
    Best regards,
    Renan Savidan.

    Unfortunately not, since the conversion to csv/xls happens server-side through PHP, hence before the rest is loaded (what you get from an external api).

    What you could do, would be to save this data in custom metas of a custom post type and then run the conversion (after you set up the plugin’s options accordingly).

    Hi,
    Thanks for following up.
    This solution won’t work for us as we don’t want to store any o these datas, but display them only and export them too from now on.
    I have been looking for a solution and I guess I will be using a PHP library and build my own code.
    So far I haven’t seen any other option.
    Thanks,
    Best regards,
