Extra Header Row Appearing in Exported Power BI Report

Hi,
I’m facing an issue while exporting data from a Power BI report. After downloading the data as Excel, the exported file contains an additional header row (see attached screenshot). It appears as a data row in my report, which I don’t want.
How to hide ?

    Thank you for reaching out to Microsoft Fabric Community.

    Thank you collinq for the prompt response.

    In addition to collinq’s point,to avoid extra header row:

    Use "Underlying data" export (if available).

    Or reshape the visual (use a flat table instead of a matrix).

    Or rename the measure to something clearer (or even blank using DAX: " ").

    Limitations of each export method depending on model settings and visual type.

    Thank you.

  • Hi sudarshan15 ,

    I am wondering if you chose the "Summarized data" and that is adding it?  Do you get the same if you select export "Underlying data"?  The summarized data option will put summary labels as another header row.
