Question

Export to Excel Logging?

1

I would like to log the user name of any user who uses an export to excel feature from a datagrid - I don't see an onclick microflow or any way to 'intercept' an export to excel request. Has anyone done this before?

Hint: export using a MF activation and log there before doing the export

Here's a solution: Telemetry Capture Widget

You can hook this widget up on your page, and configure it to create an "Event" when the Excel Export button (or anything else!) is clicked. You just need to provide it a CSS selector to listen to the button.

Upon click, the widget will create a new object associated to the widget's context entity, and call a microflow you specify. From there you can log the button click however you like.
