How do you programatically access the Export and Print buttons on the Sharing tab?

Is there any way to execute the Print or Export buttons on the Sharing ribbon? I'm trying to write a simple tool that automates the creation of a layout and I'd like to be able to trigger the stock tools from a button on my dockpane.

Thanks,

Scott Dickison

Here is a sample that shows you how you can use ArcGIS Pro commands in your own add-ins: HookProCommands

In your case, here are the snippets to execute Pro's Export button. The id to use for the print button is: "esri_sharing_PrintMap"

IPlugInWrapper wrapper = FrameworkApplication.GetPlugInWrapper("esri_sharing_ExportMap");
var command = wrapper as ICommand; // tool and command(Button) supports this
if ((command != null) && command.CanExecute(null))
   command.Execute(null);

Thanks
