Excel file downloads no longer match the view parameters / columns

Our team has a view in one app that we use for downloading address data that can then be imported to Google sheets. Over the last 2-3 weeks that download is no longer limited to the columns specified in the current view, so instead of the 20 fields I want I'm getting all 27 fields of the app. This has broken our import to G-sheets and frankly kinda defeats the idea of having a current view that you can download from. Anyone have any idea what is going on here and what the solution might be? I know I can use third party tools to get around this but this seems core to the functionality of Podio...

    Hello @Mark Spruell​ - We have deployed a fix for all end users.  I validated it by exporting a view with few selected fields and the issue seems to be resolved on my end.

     

    Could you please validate it and let us know if it's working?

    Hello @Mark Spruell​ - Thank you for bringing this to our attention. This is actually a regression and Podio Support team has already informed our development team regarding exports not working as expected.

     

    I see you're part of our PWA community so you can follow this thread here. You do not have any support tickets with us, if you'd like you can create one for tracking as well.

     

    Apologies for any inconvenience.

    @Harshit Shah​ thank you for getting back to me. I hope this can be resolved soon, it seems to be a pretty basic (and useful) function. Podio's development has been slow but generally in the right direction...

    @Mark Spruell​ - Do you want me to open a support ticket on your behalf? I'll come back here once the issue is resolved and update as well. Just let me know!

     

    Podio recently started getting major updates after our acquisition so we hope we can roll out something useful that meets your use case.
