not access offset of type Laravel\Nova\Support\PendingTranslation on array error when using maatwebsite/laravel-nova-excel

I'm encountering the following error when using the maatwebsite/laravel-nova-excel package in a Laravel Nova project:

Cannot access offset of type Laravel\Nova\Support\PendingTranslation on array

I install it with this command

composer require psr/simple-cache:^2.0 maatwebsite/laravel-nova-excel

and I use it like this:

use Maatwebsite\LaravelNovaExcel\Actions\DownloadExcel;

public function actions(NovaRequest $request): array
    {
        return [
            new DownloadExcel(),
        ];
    }

I tried:

  • Updated all composer dependencies using composer update.

I am using laravel 11 and laravel nova 5

Solution

  • I am experiencing the same problem. When ID column name is not specified, Nova passes PendingTranslation class instance instead of column name into $only argument of ExportToExcel::replaceFieldValuesWhenOnResource https://github.com/SpartnerNL/Laravel-Nova-Excel/blob/1.3/src/Actions/ExportToExcel.php#L220.

    Temporary fix is to pass name of id column when defining id field - ID::make('ID').
