I tried creating an export to excel functionality using google sheets.  
Each sheet has a GID, you can find GID of specific sheet in the URL of spreadsheet. Then you can use this link to download specific sheet -  
\<link\_to\_google\_sheets\>/export?format=xlsx&gid=\<sheet\_id\>  
sample  
KEY is the unique ID of the spreadsheet.  
Sample below:  
[https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/14nA5-DV6\_8FwR7Q6c8UY6EPB7YpqooQ8EYy2Tm11Dr8/export?format=xlsx&gid=1863657158](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/14nA5-DV6_8FwR7Q6c8UY6EPB7YpqooQ8EYy2Tm11Dr8/export?format=xlsx&gid=1863657158)  
Once you have your export url, you can add action to your button to open link with target as your export url.

P.S - You will have to create user friendly sheets with only required columns for the purpose of export and use the link of that sheet.

This is fantastic!

How about the PDF? How did you get it to download as a PDF?

You can specify “format=pdf” in the link to generate it.

Saw your post late. Yes, you can export in formats supported by Google Sheets.
