Export .xlsx file with no records

Hello,

 

I would like my workflow to export an excel file with all outlined field headers even if there are no records found during the period run. 

 

Any help? Thanks!

Hi @valeriemattas ,

 

That is possible without any configuration needed.

 

Take a look and let me know if you need further assistance.

Best,

Hi @valeriemattas,

 

there shouldn't be any difference. I just tried it.

Do a count records and union to the dataset. This way there will always be at least 1 row of data to write to the file

Thanks @grossal - not sure why it wasn't working previously... Appreciate your time.
