Hi @levell_x_dunn,

 

Thanks for the idea- I'm marking it as a duplicate based on this post: http://community.alteryx.com/t5/Alteryx-Product-Ideas/Add-support-of-xlsb-file-format-as-input-file-....

 

We are currently evaluating this for a post-11.0 release.

 

Best,

Alex

We use xlsb files all the time. Definitely need this feature sooner rather than later.

Dear Alteryx,

 

Is there already a plan to implement support for input and output of .xlsb in the next release? What is the status of these requests?

We also use it extensively.

Hello,

I need support for the same files. Please think of implementing that in the software in the future.
