Hi there,
I got the same query from our users and hardluck cannot find the solution yet.
@MattAllington --> is there any other workaround/solution, please advise...
Thanks.

@Annemie19 , I think it is typically data export not the formatted data export. You can try the tool suggested by @PaulDBrown .
You mght want to try out the free tool provided by the gurus at sqlbi.com

The users are exporting from the browser app.
Is there no such solution for this?
