Report Table Formatting not reflecting in Email Alert

[ACJ]

Hi All,

I am working on one of the email notification alerts on my project and designed a workflow to send email alerts with tabular data.

However, I noticed that the table formatting settings are not reflected in the email alert.

Details are listed below - 

1. Table headers are set align to the center.

2. Data are set to align based on the data type -

a. Numerical data types including Boolean are set to align to right

b. String data types are set to align to left

c. Date and Time fields are set to align to center.

The alignments are looking properly in the designer, but all the date fields getting left aligned in the email alert.

The version of Alteryx designer used is 2021.4.2.07064

Kindly help me in resolving the issue as I am not sure why the issue is happening

Thanks & Regards,

Amogha C J

Hi @ACJ 

I am not sure whether you are using the Outlook.

If yes, I do encountered the same issue as it was due Outlook application issue.

If I was looking at the Email online it comes out correct, but in the Outlook application it is aligned left.

Waiting for my teach team to resolve at their end.

Many thanks

Same issue!

Looks correct in browse tool on designer desktop 2024.1.1.93
Looks correct in Edge browser on Outlook online site.
Does NOT look correct on Outlook.exe 

Unfortunately my audience is all using Outlook.exe

Was anyone able to identify the issue here? I'm having the same issue and can't seem to figure out why its doing it. I am also using outlook, but I have another very similar workflow that sends out my emailed tables with no issue - so I'm confused why its suddenly aligning everything left for this workflow.
