Unable to Provide “Export to Excel” Option for List View in Landing Page

User Experience
1

I am facing an issue with enabling the Export to Excel option from a landing page in the portal.

Scenario

  • I have added a List View in a landing page.

  • The List View is populated using a Data Page.

  • The Data Page sources data from a Connector.

Issue

The Export to Excel option is not available for this List View.

However, when the Data Page sources data using a Report Definition, the Export to Excel option is available and works correctly.

Question

Is Export to Excel supported only for Report Definition–based sources?

If the data is coming from a Connector through a Data Page:

  • Is there any additional configuration required?

  • Is there any alternative approach to enable Export to Excel functionality?

Any suggestions or best practices would be helpful.

As of 25.1, Export to Excel is available ONLY for Report Definitions.

I am using a Data Page sourced from a Report Definition in Pega. I observed that when the Data Page key is not pyGUID, I need to uncheck “Allow querying any column (Pega connection only)” to fetch records in the landing page, but the Export to Excel option is not available.

When the key is pyGUID, I need to check “Allow querying any column (Pega connection only)” to fetch records, and only then the Export to Excel option appears.

Is pyGUID mandatory for enabling Export to Excel, or is there any alternate approach to achieve this with a business key?

“Allow querying any column (Pega connection only)” is definitely needed to unlock constellation features like Export to Excel.

As for pyGUID, I do not know the answer. I know the recommended approach is instead alternative keys, is that available to you?
