Hi,

eazyBI report result is created dynamically in the browser. To create the eazyBI report it is necessary to render the result in a browser so for export eazyBI plugin uses the headless Google Chrome browser to capture report content and draw PDF. 
Confluence is generating PDF content in a different way and is not using dynamic page rendering to capture it in PDF. As various plugins can have various content, Confluence does not promise the export of results.

The PDFs that are generated from eazyBI pages are not linked to Confluence PDF generation and there is no way how the gadget can tell to Confluence PDF creator what content from gadget side it should put in the space. 

This means that for now, in case export is necessary, the only solution is to export eazyBI reports separately from Confluence pages. I would suggest to create eazyBI Dashboard that you publish in a Confluence page and enable the results export for this gadget.

Hi @eazyBI Support,

Have you thought about hooking your existing mechanism into the exporter chain by implementing the output type PDF?

Hi Tobias,

Thank you for your suggestion, I will pass this on to our developers for consideration. We have some ideas on how to tackle this issue and will keep this post updated.

Hi,

Now there is an option to export Confluence page to PDF with all included eazyBI reports in it.
This option is available if eazyBI for Confluence app is used: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1219504/eazybi-reports-and-charts-for-confluence?hosting=cloud&tab=overview (see also Pricing page).
Additionally to the export to PDF options, this app allows you to analyze views and edits of your Confluence pages. Read more about it: https://docs.eazybi.com/display/EAZYBICONFLUENCE/eazyBI+for+Confluence

Note that export to PDF option is not available if Jira gadgets are used for adding eazyBI reports in Confluence page, as the default Atlassian solution for publishing gadgets does not provide the option to export reports in PDF and we do not have any power over its improvements.
