Enhance Excel export

0 Kudos

The Dataiku Excel export from datasets is pretty basic. Just the data, coloured column headings and that's about it. I would to see more advanced features added like enabling the column filters, adding a freeze pane in A2 so all column headers are frozen and renaming the Sheet1 name with the name of the Dataset.

Can that be done with a Python script?  I've had similar ideas and I'm thinking of solving using MS365 apps such as Power Automate.

Yes of course it can be done with Excel but Dataiku aims to please two sets of users "coders" and "clickers". This is for the "clickers".

@Turribeach As a person who is primarily a clicker.  I appreciate this idea.   


@me2 If you are willing to do a bit of coding.  This thread has a bit of a discussion about how one might approach creating Ms excel file with more style.
