ASPX

<dx:ASPxDiagram ID="ASPxDiagram1" runat="server" ClientInstanceName="diagram" >
</dx:ASPxDiagram>
<dx:ASPxButton ID="btnSave" runat="server" Text="Save" AutoPostBack="False" >
    <ClientSideEvents Click="function(s, e) {diagramData = diagram.Export();}" />
</dx:ASPxButton>
<dx:ASPxButton ID="btnLoad" runat="server" Text="Load" AutoPostBack="False" >
    <ClientSideEvents Click="function(s, e) {diagram.Import(diagramData);}" />
</dx:ASPxButton>

Use the ASPxDiagram.Export and ASPxDiagram.Import methods to save and load the diagram data on the server side.

Note

The ASPxDiagram stores an opened diagram’s data in its own text format. Do not modify the data the Export method returns because a modified document can be loaded incorrectly.
