pdf.proxyURL String (default: null)

The URL of the server side proxy which will stream the file to the end user.

A proxy will be used when the browser isn't capable of saving files locally. Such browsers are IE version 9 and lower and Safari.

The developer is responsible for implementing the server-side proxy.

The proxy will receive a POST request with the following parameters in the request body:

  • contentType: The MIME type of the file
  • base64: The base-64 encoded file content
  • fileName: The file name, as requested by the caller.

The proxy should return the decoded file with set "Content-Disposition" header.

Example - set the server proxy URL

<div id="chart"></div>
<script>
  $("#stock-chart").kendoStockChart({
      pdf: {
          proxyURL: "/save"
      },
      series: [{
        type: "line",
        field: "value",
        categoryField: "date",
        data: [
          { value: 1, date: new Date(2012, 1, 1) },
          { value: 2, date: new Date(2012, 1, 2) }
        ]
      }]
  });

  var chart = $("#stock-chart").getKendoStockChart();
  chart.saveAsPDF();
</script>
