Working with UIPath output file

[Junie]

Hi,

I'm trying to read a UIPath generated email with excel attachment but everytime I try to read the file as input it's showing the erro below

so I have to always go in and save the file manually and that's the only time it is read normally

In the configuration for the Input Data tool, try using the File Format "Microsoft Excel Legacy (*.xlsx)"

My understanding of the difference in these two File Formats:

• File Format "Microsoft Excel Legacy (*.xlsx)": driver created and maintained by Microsoft
• File Format "Microsoft Excel (*.xlsx)": driver created and maintained by Alteryx

I'm using 2020.2 and I don't see it in my File Format options

is there a way to show it?

I'm on version 2021.4

Your question about access to access to both of these is probably something Alteryx support can help with.  

• File Format "Microsoft Excel Legacy (*.xlsx)": driver created and maintained by Microsoft
• File Format "Microsoft Excel (*.xlsx)": driver created and maintained by Alteryx

Not sure if there are options to have both drivers with older Alteryx versions.
