Can anyone tell me that how can I export SharePoint search result for a particular keyword(which I passed in SharePoint search box web part) through REST API?

There may be some JS API available which can do it in better way, but i prefer the old school way to export html tabular data into excel.
<html>
<body>
<table id="xyz">
<tr>
<td>ABC</td>
<td>DEF</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>1</td>
<td>2</td>
</tr>
</table>
<a id="exportData" href="" download="text.xls">Export</a>
</body>
</html>
<script src="http://ajax.aspnetcdn.com/ajax/jQuery/jquery-3.2.1.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
var tableHTML = document.getElementById('xyz').outerHTML.replace(/ /g, '%20');
$('#exportData').prop('href', ('data:application/vnd.ms-excel, ' + tableHTML));
})
</script>
The only condition is, your data need to be in tabular format and when you are saying export to excel, it must be satisfying the condition.

My data is not in table format. I am using default view of SharePoint Search result to display. Oct 16, 2017 at 10:49
