Write CSV as CSV instead of CSV UTF-8

Help

Hi all,

I am using this write csv method

but I want to specify it so that it is saved as “CSV” instead of “CSV UTF-8”

Right now I think it is saved as “CSV UTF-8” and I can’t upload the file to the platform that only accept “CSV”…

Any idea? Do I have to put something in the Encoding field??
Thanks!

Hi @lavint

You’re on the right track. Check out the topic for the activity for extra information:

There is a link in there to the list of valid encodings.

Hi @loginerror,

Thanks for your respond! I am aware of this page but I am still unsure which one is for just the “CSV”? I see the UTF-8… Any hint? Thanks

Warm regards,
Lavina

I checked the files in Notepad++ and these are the results:
CSV (Comma delimited):

CSV UTF-8 (Comma delimited):

I also found this topic, maybe it helps:

Hi @loginerror,

Thanks a lot! I tested different encoding and “us-ascii” works - it saves the csv as “CSV” instead of “CSV UTF-8”

Have a nice weekend :slight_smile:
