Hi Product team,

 

What is the format of data when exported as .CSV or .TXT?  Is it ISO-8859-1 or UTF-8.  What I have seen is if the module is English only it outputs as ISO-8859-1 and if the module is Chinese, output is UTF-8.  Can we have some clarity on this please?  Thanks in advance.

    Hi @SathyaM ,

    I am not referring to import data. I am referring to export files.

    Is the exported data in ISO-8859-1 or UTF-8 format?

    That is what I thought too .. but when I imported back the same file I exported out (export format expected to be UTF-8), Anaplan auto detected it as ISO-8859-1 instead of UTF-8. Is it import or export that is getting it wrong?

    Hi Alex,

    As I had stated earlier, I am not referring to import data. I am referring to export file format.

    Hi

    I imported back and Anaplan detected some files as ISO-8859-1 and some as UTF-8.
