Export Report To PDF

Developing and ArcPro add in and cant get the ExportToPDF to work for my report. I can export it from Share->ExportReport no problem. But doesn't work in code. No errors or anything. Code runs through just fine but no pdf is ever created. I found the code here:

https://github.com/Esri/arcgis-pro-sdk/wiki/ProSnippets-Reports#export-report-to-pdf

Below is the code being used.

private async void CnclReport_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) { System.Windows.Forms.SaveFileDialog saveFileDialog1 = new System.Windows.Forms.SaveFileDialog(); saveFileDialog1.Filter = "PDF File|*.pdf"; saveFileDialog1.Title = "Save a PDF File"; saveFileDialog1.FileName = "CouncilReport.pdf"; saveFileDialog1.ShowDialog(); if (saveFileDialog1.FileName != "") { await QueuedTask.Run(() => { ReportProjectItem reportProjItem = Project.Current.GetItems<ReportProjectItem>().FirstOrDefault(item => item.Name.Equals("CouncilReport")); Report report = reportProjItem?.GetReport(); var exportOptions = new ReportExportOptions { ExportPageOption = ExportPageOptions.ExportAllPages, TotalPageNumberOverride = 0 }; PDFFormat pdfFormat = new PDFFormat(); pdfFormat.Resolution = 300; pdfFormat.OutputFileName = saveFileDialog1.FileName; report.ExportToPDF("CouncilReport", pdfFormat, exportOptions, false); }); } else { MessageBox.Show("Please provide a file name"); } MessageBox.Show("exported"); }

-edit

Instead of trying to do it that way, I used a GP Tool. Found this from:

https://github.com/Esri/arcgis-pro-sdk/wiki/ProConcepts-Geoprocessing

var progDlg = new ProgressDialog("Exporting Council Report", "Cancel", 100, true); progDlg.Show(); var progsrc=new CancelableProgressorSource(progDlg); var parameters = Geoprocessing.MakeValueArray("CouncilReport", saveFileDialog1.FileName); await Geoprocessing.ExecuteToolAsync("management.ExportReportToPDF", parameters, null, new CancelableProgressorSource(progDlg).Progressor, GPExecuteToolFlags.Default); progDlg.Hide();

Hi Michael,

As a work around, please specify the full path (including the filename) to the ExportToPDF method. This works for me.

Looks like "OutFileName" property on the PDFFormat is being ignored. I will follow up on this one with the Report team.

Thanks!

report.ExportToPDF($@"C:\Users\UserName\Documents\ArcGIS\reportnew.pdf", pdfFormat, exportOptions, false);

Thanks

yes... it was "OutFileName" in quotes instead of the variable. Thanks.
