Bug - Unable to upload xlsx file to Power BI workspace due to applyAlignment attribute
I use Apache POI to generate xlsx files. Recently I upgraded from Apache POI 4 to Apache POI 5 and my excel files started failing their upload to my workspace (https://app.powerbi.com/).
My investigation led me to generate roughly the same content using Apache POI 4 and Apache POI 5 and narrowed down the issue to the applyAlignment="true" attribute in the excel file's "xl/styles.xml" file. This attribute was added to Apache POI 5 as a bug fix (https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=64494) and seems to be causing an error when uploading to my Power BI workspace.
I removed all instances of the attribute from the styles.xml file, and I was able to successfully upload the file to my Power BI workspace.
Interestingly, the same xlsx file can be opened just fine in other Microsoft products, such as Excel.
