3 diffrent dataset to 3 tabs in one csv file

Borisham

Hello,

 

I filter my data into 3 sections (low, medium, high), this field called Level

 

After filtering to 3 levels (low, medium, high), I would like to write this into 3 tabs on the same CSV file. How can I achieve this?

 

  • This workflow will run daily.
  • The tabs name will have a different name (low = 'level 1', medium = 'level 2', high = 'level 3' )

Thanks

Hi @Borisham ,

 

.csv files don't have tabs, so that would be impossible. You would need to write it out to Excel.

 

To do this in Excel you will need to write a formula to create the filepath for the records, each one with the difficulty as the tab:

"<filepath>"+Filename+".xlsx"+"|||"+[Difficulty]

 

Then use this as the output path in the output tool:

Hope this helps.

Hi @Borisham 

 

CSV files don't support tabs, you could output to an XLSX instead.
