Create Pivot Table

It is possible to use Aspose.Cells to add pivot tables to spreadsheets programmatically.

Pivot Table Object Model

Aspose.Cells provides a set of classes that are used to create and control pivot tables. The building blocks are:

PivotField represents a field in a PivotTable.
PivotFieldCollection represents a collection of all the PivotField objects in the PivotTable.
PivotTable represents a PivotTable on a worksheet.
PivotTableCollection represents a collection of all the PivotTable objects on a worksheet.

Creating a Simple Pivot Table Using Aspose.Cells

Add data to a worksheet using the cell’s putValue method. This data will be used as the pivot table’s data source.
Add a pivot table to the worksheet by calling the PivotTables collection’s add method, which is encapsulated in the worksheet object.
Access the new PivotTable object from the PivotTables collection by passing the PivotTable’s index.
Use any of the PivotTable objects (explained above) to manage the pivot table.

After executing the example code, a pivot table is added to the worksheet.

var dataDir = "./";

// Instantiating a Workbook object
var workbook = new AsposeCells.Workbook();

// Obtaining the reference of the newly added worksheet
var sheet = workbook.getWorksheets().get(0);

var cells = sheet.getCells();

// Setting the value to the cells
var cell = cells.get("A1");
cell.putValue("Sport");
cell = cells.get("B1");
cell.putValue("Quarter");
cell = cells.get("C1");
cell.putValue("Sales");

cell = cells.get("A2");
cell.putValue("Golf");
cell = cells.get("A3");
cell.putValue("Golf");
cell = cells.get("A4");
cell.putValue("Tennis");
cell = cells.get("A5");
cell.putValue("Tennis");
cell = cells.get("A6");
cell.putValue("Tennis");
cell = cells.get("A7");
cell.putValue("Tennis");
cell = cells.get("A8");
cell.putValue("Golf");

cell = cells.get("B2");
cell.putValue("Qtr3");
cell = cells.get("B3");
cell.putValue("Qtr4");
cell = cells.get("B4");
cell.putValue("Qtr3");
cell = cells.get("B5");
cell.putValue("Qtr4");
cell = cells.get("B6");
cell.putValue("Qtr3");
cell = cells.get("B7");
cell.putValue("Qtr4");
cell = cells.get("B8");
cell.putValue("Qtr3");

cell = cells.get("C2");
cell.putValue(1500);
cell = cells.get("C3");
cell.putValue(2000);
cell = cells.get("C4");
cell.putValue(600);
cell = cells.get("C5");
cell.putValue(1500);
cell = cells.get("C6");
cell.putValue(4070);
cell = cells.get("C7");
cell.putValue(5000);
cell = cells.get("C8");
cell.putValue(6430);

var pivotTables = sheet.getPivotTables();

// Adding a PivotTable to the worksheet
var index = pivotTables.add("=A1:C8", "E3", "PivotTable2");

// Accessing the instance of the newly added PivotTable
var pivotTable = pivotTables.get(index);

// Unshowing grand totals for rows.
pivotTable.setRowGrand(false);

// Draging the first field to the row area.
pivotTable.addFieldToArea(AsposeCells.Pivot.PivotFieldType.Row, 0);

// Draging the second field to the column area.
pivotTable.addFieldToArea(AsposeCells.Pivot.PivotFieldType.Column, 1);

// Draging the third field to the data area.
pivotTable.addFieldToArea(AsposeCells.Pivot.PivotFieldType.Data, 2);

// Saving the Excel file
workbook.save(dataDir + "pivotTable_test_out.xls");

When assigning a range of cells as the data source, the range must go from top left to bottom right. For example, “A1:C3” is valid but “C3:A1” is not.
