Hi @SCK 

 

Do you have any special characters in your data? See below link (different app, but same error) with a little more background. It seems like the render tool uses UTF-8 and some data disagrees with that. If you find the offending data try using a 'DecomposeUnicodeForMatch' formula or cleaning it some other way.

Where do I find the 'Encoding' option in '.xlsx. file format? I can't seem to resolve it. Please help

Hi @SCK 

 

Unfortunately I'm not familiar enough with the render tool's functionality. At first glance I don't see a way to change the encoding, but maybe others have some thoughts.
