Hi,

 

When your travel_date column has the date format, it don't give an error anymore and is it possible to copy it in excel.

Hi,

 

Can you give an overview of the format applied in each column in the query?

 

Kind regards

The easy workaround solution is to create a table visual with all of the rows and then just export that table visual as a CSV file from the triple dots on the visual.
