Downloading Excel file xlsx in Angularjs and WebApi

Question

I am working on a task, in which I have to download a report in xlsx format. The report file is generated successfully from server, and is received on client side as well.

Answer 1

I was facing the same error , content was in hexa format, so i added a response type as arraybuffer, problem got resolved. please see below.

$http({
    url: '/api/sendPMOToBackendUpdate',
    method: "POST",
    headers: {'Content-type': 'application/json'},
    data: backendTsData,
    responseType: 'arraybuffer'
}).success(function(data, status, headers){
    var file = new Blob([ data ], { type : 'application/vnd.ms-excel'});
    var defaultFileName ="TSC-"+$scope.user.name+"-"+$scope.user.ohrId+".xls";
    saveAs(file,defaultFileName);
}).error(function(err) {
    console.log('Error: ' + err);
});
