My workflow was good. I have simillar flow for an .xlsx file that works fine, but this .xlsb file seems to have an issues. Any idea how to mitigate this?

Hi @Sshanthakuma 

 

As you're trying to import XLSB Alteryx won't support it out of the box, you may need to have an MS Access Driver installed on the Server. Take a look at this (which is aimed at Designer but should give you guidance) - https://knowledge.alteryx.com/index/s/article/How-to-Enable-Microsoft-Excel-Binary-Excel-Legacy-Acce...
