I am checking StudioX for one of our citizen developers and it is found that the read range activity is taking way more time compared to Studio. Sometimes - the wait is endless
I tried with a simple file which contains only 2 columns and 5 rows - It took around 1 minute to complete the action
Any known issue / solution for this issue?

HI @sharazkm32
Hi @keundong26 ,
To have Modern Excel activities running Read Range faster, we recommend setting the Read formatting option to RawValue and deselecting the Visible rows only option. This makes it faster than the Classic activities.

However, if you’re interested in read/write in a fast way, the fastest way is using Workbook activities as it doesn’t require Excel to be installed.
Thanks,
Raluca
apart from this delete all the temp files from that machine. You can find these files by using Run type %temp% & delete these files.
Hope this will help.

Hi @sharazkm32
Try using the Read range workbook activity instead of using the Excel activities.
Hope you understand!!

Hi @mkankatala
I am using StudioX where I believe Read Range Workbook activity is not available. Let me know if I am wrong

Workbook activities are available in Studio X but you have to enable the developer option.
Follow below steps to enable the developer option-
→ Go to Activities panel
→ Click on Filter and Check the developer.
Hope it helps!!

We dont want Citizen Developers to use Developer Activities. Also the solution suggested in the above thread is also not working as expected. It is still taking time even after modifying the configuration value as Raw Value for Read Formatting
