Workaround

  • Use a title with no period '.'.
  • Upon downloading the broken file, double-click the file name and change the name by erasing everything after the period. Then, add "XLSX" to the end of the file name. Applying this allows the file to be recognized as an Excel worksheet and open as expected.
  • Click the Download option in the site menu after the report is initially run with the incorrect format. The correct Excel-formatted report is downloaded and can be opened as expected.
