csv output conversion.

Hi fellow Alteryx users,

 

I was hoping somebody could assist me with an issue I am having when outputting a Workflow as csv. For   certain rows in the Text column it says "could not be fully converted from VW String to a string". I am not sure how to get around this error. I require the full text as it its for a journal upload that we do.

 

 

In the mean time I have been output as an Excel workbook and then converting to a CSV manually. It would be nice if I could get Alteryx to do this for me though!

 Hi @AhmedKarim 

 

Are you able to share the part of the data where this error happens? Just a sample would be fine. It is due to special characters I believe, maybe we can replace these special characters for acceptable characters that would not change the logic needed?

 

Pedro.
