  Hello,
  
  I am adding my own export button onto the JsViewer. Is there a way to set the filename it’ll use when it exports using the viewer.export() call?

  Hello,

  You can give the “FileName” in the setting.

  Thanks,

  Hello,
  
  That did not work, it still saves the file as the report Id.

  Hello,

  Following code is working at my end successfully:
  
  viewer.export(‘Pdf’, downloadReport, true, { FileName: ‘1997 Annual Report’ });

  Could you please share the JS snippet?

  Thanks,

  viewerWindow.export('Pdf', null, true, { Title: 'QA Report Sheet', FileName: 'QAReportSheet' });
  

  It is not saving as QAReportSheet, it is saving as the ReportID.

  Hello,

  I am not able to reproduce the issue with same code. Could you please try after upgrading the AR to the latest version. You can download the same from the following link:

  I figured it out. You have to have the callback function like in your example downloadReport. I was using null. You also have to have the parameter for show save as dialog be false. Otherwise if it’s true, it’ll download the report once with the filename specified and another time with the filename as the report Id.
