I am having a hard time finding a way to send over data from my page to pdf generation page without navigation. Can someone help?

doesn’t the user interact with the PDF generation page? so you want the data to be sent to the PDF generation and trigger the action?

You could save the data to the database.

Like create a new one?

No I have it to generate in background but the pdf template page isn’t capturing my data unless I navigate to it and send the data

looks like you’re setting the datasource and triggering the action on on page load.
in that case to do it from another page you need to create a new thing in your database like @Buddha said and use a database trigger to start PDF generation action. Make sure to filter the data by user to get the right data if more than one user can generate PDFs.
