render html and then redirect to action (.net core)

Bau Bau

i start learning jsreport recently and i have used the example where it renders the html to pdf and then it downloads.
and to be more specific is the method from github example InvoiceDownload.
Take a look
there is any possibility like render and download and then redirect to action. I am really in need of this example.

Thank you

HttpContext.JsReportFeature().Recipe(Recipe.PhantomPdf).OnAfterRender(r => HttpContext.Response.Headers["Refresh"] = "15;URL=Redirect Here");

This is what i come up with, based on. It will open in a new tab, and then set some seconds and will redirect to another page

I suggest to take a look at the source code.

Try to inject IJsReportMVCService into your controller and use its RenderViewAsync to invoke particular view rendering at any place in your action and perform the rest of your code including redirect afterwards.

Can you make an example if you are kind, based on your InvoiceDownload code?
I didn't succeed. It keeps giving me 502.3 http error.

Thank you

This is what i come up with

var renderRequest = new RenderRequest
{
Template =
{
Engine = Engine.Handlebars,
Recipe = Recipe.PhantomPdf
}
};

var report = await JsReportMvcService.RenderViewAsync(HttpContext, renderRequest, RouteData, "CreatePdf", model);
report.Meta.ContentDisposition = "attachment; filename=" + model.Name + ".pdf";
return RedirectToAction("Done", "RegistrationForms");
