3738619 - SAC - ExportToPDF_1.setExportInBackgroundEnabled

The script ExportToPDF_1.setExportInBackgroundEnabled(true)  does not trigger background export of the story in SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC) as expected.

SAP ANALYTICS CLOUD

1. Create a button in a story then add the following script

   ExportToPDF_1.setExportInBackgroundEnabled(true);
   ExportToPDF_1.exportView();

-> Notice that the export in the background is not generated and the option is greyed out in the ExportToPDF_1 settings

The behavior is by design

Enabling export in the background is currently not supported in ODE. Please refer to the help guide for more details:Use an Export to PDF Technical Object
Additionally, from the scripting parameter "ExportToPDF_1", you can also verify this behavior, as the option is greyed out, indicating that it cannot be triggered.
However, in view mode, you may see the option to enable background export in the story
