How to set the CSV format as default export for Analytical Reports
Symptom

After enabling the feature CUP-17662 all the reports are downloading in Excel format which we don't want to, and we need to get the reports in CSV format. Can we have default settings as CSV for all reports?


Resolution

The default format for Prepackage report will be set as Excel Template format this is by default, the only way to change it as workaround is exporting that as CSV and save in the Public Reports Workspace folder.

Please follow the steps mentioned below:

  1. Open the report > Click Actions > Configure Export
  2. Select the CSV format option > Export Data
  3. Wait till the download completes and the screen message Export complete is displayed > click Done - it'll redirect to the report screen again
  4. Click Save

If it's a Prepackage Report, you should save in a Public Report workspace and other users could have access, they should download it from the Public Report next time.

If it's a report already saved, if you have permission, click Save and it'll overwrite the Excel configuration. The mentioned steps should save the CSV option for download for the next time.
