Data Shuttle Offload keeps deleting other Excel tabs

Stacy M

New to Data Shuttle. I created the offload workflow successfully to an excel tab and it overwrites the entire file. My other tabs which will calculate the data on tab 1 after it's refreshed just disappear. What am I doing wrong, please?

Hi @Stacy M!

After reviewing our documentation and running some tests, the behavior you’re experiencing is expected. When an Offload workflow runs, it generates a completely new version of the file, replacing the existing version in the target location you’ve selected. This means that any additional tabs in the Excel file will be overwritten during this process. If no prior version exists in the target location, the workflow will simply export the data available in the sheet.

You can find more details about how Offload workflows operate in this article: Create an Offload Workflow in Data Shuttle.

I hope this clears things up!

Cheers,
Isaac.
