Exporting Chart Data
FusionCharts lets you export the rendered charts in the JPG, PNG, SVG, and PDF formats. In its v3.11.0, FusionCharts Suite XT introduces exporting chart data in the XLS format (as an Excel spreadsheet).
To enable server-side exporting, the chart level attribute exportEnabled is set to 1. The 
menu button is then visible in the top-right corner of the chart. Click/hover over this menu button to see the dropdown menu with the export options, as shown in the image below:
To export chart data, select the Export as XLS option. The XLS gets downloaded to your machine.
A column 2D chart with export enabled is shown below. Click the menu button and select the Export as XLS to export the chart data.

</html>To export a chart in the XLS format using server-side exporting, it is mandatory that the exporting server has the latest code, which is available in the FusionCharts package. Alternatively, the FusionCharts export link, export.api3.fusioncharts.com, can also be used. For client-side exporting, the exporting chart data feature is supported only by modern browsers with canvas support (except Safari and IE9).
To process the export data on your own server, you can configure one of the export handlers by following the Setup Private Export Server guide.
Starting version 3.8.0, FusionCharts Suite XT has also enabled the client-side export feature. The client-side export feature removes the round-trip involved in exporting from a server while also addressing the data confidentiality issues that may arise from using a publicly hosted server. To enable client-side exporting, the exportAtClientSide attribute (also a chart level attribute) is set to 1.
