Simple table rendering as weird HTML in reporting tool

I have a workflow(which I can't upload due to confidential data) that outputs to a VERY BASIC table. It's only 3 columns and a max of 7 rows depending how much data goes through it.

 

When I view the Report Text tool, the table is rendering as weird HTML and not the table.(see screenshot). I can't figure out how to get the table into the report text.

 

Thanks for any help!

Hey @csh8428, this is because you're adding your table as a field in the Report Text tool:

All you need to do is remove that, add a Layout tool to the end of your flow, with the following configuration, and you should get the output shown below - I've attached the mock workflow I created for this:

@csh8428 This is because you connected the table output to text tool. You can combine the table tool and text tool using a union tool like below
