File Browser tool not appearing correctly to select an output location in Alteryx Server

Hi , I am looking for some help in using the File Browse tool in Analytics App to select a location to save an output.

Basically, I would like a prompt where the user browses to a location to save the output. It runs fine when ran as an analytic app from the Designer

But , Shows differently while running the workflow from my private Studio -

When I run from there, the ability to navigate to a specific folder location seems to be gone.

It says "Browse to a save location and select a file type" but there is no way actually select a file. It only lets me name the file and worksheet/table.

Appreciate your support

Thanks,

Rajesh

Hello!

The file browser into the gallery will not work in that way, you can download your results, but select where you want to save into the Server is a security problem.
