Grid View for ASP.NET MVC - How to export grid data to different formats

This example illustrates how to use the ExportTo* methods to export the GridView 's content in different formats.

Note the following key points when you export GridView extension content:

• Define the GridView extension in a separate PartialView (TypedListDataBindingPartial.cshtml) without any additional tags.
• Wrap the GridView's PartialView in a form to apply the client's layout state (sorting, filtering, etc.).

  @using(Html.BeginForm("ExportTo", "Home")) {
      // ...
      @Html.Partial("TypedListDataBindingPartial", Model)
  }
  

• Make a POST request to submit this form to the corresponding Controller Action.
• The GridViewSettings (especially the Name property) should be the same in PartialView and Controller;
• The data source/Model should be the same in PartialView and Controller.
