Output Tool adds a blank row

I'm trying to append a column to an input excel file but the output tool adds a blank row as first row and the second row with the expected text. I selected append to existing sheet option from the output options menu and map by name from the append field name menu. The result is:

 

Header1 | Header2 | Field expected

<text>        <text>           blank

 blank         blank           <text>

Hello @Istwineres ,

 

I am aware that you may know this. I asked if you could change the workflow to mimic your scenario.

I am not experiencing the issue and no idea what it is that you are facing. We are here to help you.

By doing so, you may have discovered a bug and help other users to see it. Just shuffle the workflow around to see what you are doing.

 

Many thanks

Hi - Did you find a solution to this? I have the same issue. There is no output file tagged to my workflow so I know it's not because of mapping.
