splatter0 opened a new issue, #42224:
URL: https://github.com/apache/superset/issues/42224
## Feature request
Please support an optional, dedicated download button for charts embedded
through the Share iframe URL, especially standalone table and report embeds.
For example:
```text
/superset/explore/p/<permalink-key>/?standalone=1&show_download=1
```
## Background and use case
In our use case, tables and reports created in Superset need to be embedded
individually into existing business applications.
We do not want to embed a complete dashboard or expose the full Explore
interface. The embedded content should remain a clean, standalone table or
report.
However, users of the host application still need to download the displayed
report data, for example as CSV or XLSX.
Currently, when a chart is shared using a standalone iframe such as:
```html
<iframe
src="https://superset.example.com/superset/explore/p/<permalink-key>/?standalone=1"
></iframe>
```
the chart toolbar and download actions are hidden. There does not appear to
be a supported iframe parameter for displaying only the download action.
## Proposed solution
Add an iframe option such as:
```text
show_download=1
```
Alternatively, add a "Show download control" option to the Share / Embed
dialog.
When enabled, the standalone iframe should display a compact download button
or menu without displaying the complete Explore toolbar.
## Expected behavior
- The option should be disabled by default for backward compatibility.
- The download button should be displayed only when explicitly enabled.
- It should respect existing Superset export permissions, such as `can_csv`
or `can_export_data`.
- Unauthorized users should not see or be able to use the download action.
- The exported data should respect the report's current filters, table
filters, search conditions, and sorting.
- Available formats could follow the chart's existing export capabilities,
such as CSV or XLSX.
- The feature should work for a single shared chart iframe and should not
require creating a one-chart dashboard.
## Alternatives considered
1. Using `standalone=0`, which exposes more of the Explore interface than
desired.
2. Creating a dashboard containing only one table, which adds unnecessary
complexity.
3. Implementing a custom download function in every host application using
Superset APIs, which requires additional integration and maintenance.
## Environment
- Apache Superset 6.1.0
- Chart type: Table / tabular report
- Embedding method: Share iframe using an Explore permalink
Thank you for considering this feature.
