File Browse interface tool delayed Excel sheet name prompt.

This just started happening recently. I have been testing a workflow on Alteryx server and when using the file select interface tool with an Excel file, it takes about 2 minutes for the sheet name prompt to show up.

If I run this without the sheet name prompt, obviously the workflow fails because a sheet name was not provided. Not sure why it's still not a capability to pre-determine the sheet name and avoid the prompt altogether, but that's for another day.

I have built a very simple 4 tool workflow to test this and it's still not working.

I am answering my own question here, but this pretty much breaks a critical function of a majority of our server workflows. Any idea when this is planned to be fixed?

I would also add that we are on 2023.1.1.123.

Any updates on when we can expect this to be patched?

Alteryx folks, the file select dialogue is practically useless and renders all workflows inoperable.

Please let us know when we can expect a fix for this.
