csv_string = “data:text/csv;charset=utf-8,” + urllib.parse.quote(csv_string)
instead of
csv_string = “data:text/csv;charset=utf-8,” + urllib.quote(csv_string)
worked for me
Here is a cleaned up working example

'b': [2, 1, 5, 6],
'c': ['x', 'x', 'y', 'y']
})

return html.Table(
# Header
[html.Tr([html.Th(col) for col in dataframe.columns])] +
# Body
[html.Tr([
html.Td(dataframe.iloc[i][col]) for col in dataframe.columns
]) for i in range(min(len(dataframe), max_rows))]
)
app = dash.Dash(__name__)
app.css.append_css({"external_url": "https://codepen.io/chriddyp/pen/bWLwgP.css"})
app.layout = html.Div([
html.Label('Filter'),
dcc.Dropdown(

{'label': i, 'value': i} for i in

html.Div(id='table'),
html.A(
'Download Data',
id='download-link',
download="rawdata.csv",

)
])
def filter_data(value):
if value == 'all':
return df
else:
return df[df['c'] == value]
@app.callback(
dash.dependencies.Output('table', 'children'),

Something I have noticed is that when I use the csv download method, I keep getting the previous dataframe that was created when I pass in the dataframe in the method instead of having a method (filter_data) create the dataframe locally. Is there a way to get the current dataframe that’s being used in the program? I store my data in Store, which is not typically a problem to get because I don’t get this issue with other parts of my program
@app.callback(Output('download-link-2', 'href'),
[Input(component_id='download-link-2',component_property='n_clicks')],
[State(component_id='data-stored-2',component_property='data')])
def download_data_2(clicks,data):
data = pd.DataFrame(data,columns=df.columns)
csv_string = data.to_csv(index=False, encoding='utf-8')
csv_string = "data:text/csv;charset=utf-8,%EF%BB%BF" + parse.quote(csv_string)
return csv_string
host = socket.gethostbyname(socket.gethostname())
app.run_server(debug=False, host=host, port = 1001)

Has anyone found a solution to dayxx369’s problem? I have encountered the same issue.

The solution I described here should work:
It saves data based on what is contained within the dcc.Graph.figure.data object, but can easily be modified to handle the contents of dcc.Store.data or dt.DataTable.data.
edit doing so for a server-side thing won’t be possible. I suppose using the simple example from dayxx369, you would pass in State('table', 'children') and need to parse that to regenerate the CSV.
Hi Chris, is it also possible to give a path/location where the data should be exported to?

@chriddyp how can we choose what the filename is? instead of download=‘rawdata’ can we set this via an input box? I just don’t know what to return in Output(‘id’,’?’)
Is adding a file path browser possible when you click a download button?
Hi Chris,
I have the same problem as what Pray is facing. Going through all those postings, it still does not help.
My code as below (I am using Python 3):
dcc.Tab(label=‘Weather’, children=[
html.Div([
html.H4(string_weather),
html.Iframe(id=‘map1’, srcDoc = open(’/home/tanthiamhuat/DataAnalyticsPortal/data/SingaporeWeather.html’,‘r’).read(), width=‘100%’,height=‘530’),
html.A(
‘Download Data’,
id=‘download-link’,
download=“Weather.csv”,
href="",
target="_blank"
)
]),
]),
@app.callback(
Output(‘download-link’, ‘href’),
[Input(‘cust-dropdown’, ‘value’)]
)
def update_download_link():
Temperature_Rainfall = pd.read_csv(’/home/tanthiamhuat/DataAnalyticsPortal/data/Location_DeviceTemperatureRainfall.csv’)
csv_string = Temperature_Rainfall.to_csv(index=False, encoding=‘utf-8’)
csv_string = “data:text/csv;charset=utf-8,%EF%BB%BF” + urllib.parse.quote(csv_string)
return csv_string
Take note here, I have no Input for that Download link, and I am using some other which is not related to that Download link. If that Download link is not related to any input, how should we put it?
Thanks very helpful!
I’ve a slightly different use case: Instead of providing a download link for a csv file I provide a download link for a plain text file with link = "data:text/plain;charset=utf-8," + urllib.parse.quote(text). However the text is formatted and I’m getting the text in the file unformatted. I’ve not found another suitable media type which could work for me. Has someone an idea how to fix this?
Hey - I’m getting a syntax error in this part. Can you please advise?
f’/export/excel?option={filter_value}’
Hey!
@chriddyp
I tried using this code and run it without any changes. The file downloaded is not in the correct format. Can you help me resolve this
HI,
I have the same problem… did you solve it?
Best,
I wrote a download component some time ago. Here is a small example,

This is great, thank you so much! I’d managed to get the CSV download working in Chrome but IE was not having it. This appears to solve my issue.
Did you ever solve this?

Used urlllib.parser.qoute(); however, I also have the same problem!
