0 Accountability Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 I agree I would think this would be a primary default feature. The only solution, unless you have a corporate account, is to have have a third party create formatted print output utilizing Caspio Web API. using either SOAP or REST methods.

0 DataCobalt Posted September 28, 2015 Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 Hello all, Please see the second to last post of this page. I have been using a slightly modified version of this deployed on my page instead of within the datapage to great success.

Hi, we spoke about this before but I'm just seeing this. Yeah, I'm starting down the long road of figuring all of that out. I am starting literally at square one. I'm intending to use a separate VPS and Python and Flask and some python pdf library I found. Don't know if Latex will be involved or not. Should only take me a couple of years.

0 SinJunYoung Posted December 22, 2019 Report Share Posted December 22, 2019 For those who are still here, I wanted to share my own documentation of PDFs: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 kpcollier Posted December 23, 2019 Report Share Posted December 23, 2019 IMO, It is still unbelievable that the 'leading' no-code platform does not support a document/pdf style datapage. All these work-arounds to get a page to go to PDF/make a document really shows the age of Caspio's infrastructure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 NailDyanC Posted December 19, 2020 Report Share Posted December 19, 2020 Hi, just to add in the previous comments above, a new PDF download option is available for the details pages of Reports, Calendars, Combined Chart and Reports, Details and Pivot Table DataPages. The PDF configuration for details pages is similar to the existing options available on results pages. Learn more about PDF reports generation.

0 Kurumi Posted December 13, 2021 Report Share Posted December 13, 2021 Hi everyone! Just an update: Caspio has finally released a feature to show document generation, initially supporting custom PDF templates.

0 NailDyanC Posted May 21, 2022 Report Share Posted May 21, 2022 Hi everyone, just want to add as well, I have found a new useful feature of Caspio that you can use specially for PDF generating. You can now insert PDF documents on results pages in addition to details pages. You can now as well customize the “Download PDF” action link using the associated style and localization, or create a custom display during DataPage configuration.
