I implemented an excel export option for CCD activity dashboards many times.  Here is the generic javascript that you can find all over the web:

$(document).ready(function () {

    function exportTableToCSV($table, filename) {

        var $rows = $table.find('tr:has(td)'),

            // Temporary delimiter characters unlikely to be typed by keyboard
            // This is to avoid accidentally splitting the actual contents
            tmpColDelim = String.fromCharCode(11), // vertical tab character
            tmpRowDelim = String.fromCharCode(0), // null character

            // actual delimiter characters for CSV format
            colDelim = '","',
            rowDelim = '"\r\n"',

            // Grab text from table into CSV formatted string
            csv = '"' + $rows.map(function (i, row) {
                var $row = $(row),
                    $cols = $row.find('td');

                return $cols.map(function (j, col) {
                    var $col = $(col),
                        text = $col.text();

                    return text.replace(/"/g, '""'); // escape double quotes

                }).get().join(tmpColDelim);

            }).get().join(tmpRowDelim)
                .split(tmpRowDelim).join(rowDelim)
                .split(tmpColDelim).join(colDelim) + '"',

            // Data URI
            csvData = 'data:application/csv;charset=utf-8,' + encodeURIComponent(csv);

        $(this)
            .attr({
            'download': filename,
                'href': csvData,
                'target': '_blank'
        });
    }

    // This must be a hyperlink
    $(".export").on('click', function (event) {
        // CSV
        exportTableToCSV.apply(this, [$('# directactivitytable>table'), 'export.csv']);
        
        // IF CSV, don't do event.preventDefault() or return false
        // We actually need this to be a typical hyperlink
    });
});

Here is the custom javascript where you need to reference your specific classes:

    $(".submit").on('click', function (event) {
         var activitytable #server(HIE.Test.CareConnect.Util.C5Dash.ActivityTable())#;
         $('#activitytable').html(activitytable);
         var inputBoxValue $('#query').val();
         var directactivitytable #server(HIE.Test.CareConnect.Util.C5Dash.DirectActivityTable(inputBoxValue))#;
         $('#directactivitytable').html(directactivitytable);
    });

And finally the div tags for a given webpage could be as follows:

            <div class="uk-grid" data-uk-grid-margin>
                <div class="uk-width-medium-1-1">
<hr class="uk-grid-divider">
             <form class="uk-form" >

<p>
<href="#" class="export">Export Table data into Excel</a>
</p>

</form>
                    <div class="uk-overflow-container">
                    <hr>
     <div id="directactivitytable"></div>
                    </hr>
                    </div>
                    </hr>
                </div>
            </div>
