When I export a data set in excel format it is xlsx and then when I give the option of uploading it from a form the users can only upload xls.

 

This is a problem because users are confused why they can't see the file they just exported when I give them the option to upload and excel file.

 

HTML5 Viewer 2.7.1

  Hi Matthew,

   

  You can pass the extensions to the File Picker in plan text. In your case you can pass".xls,.xlsx" in Accepted File Types for File Picker, so that File Picker accepts both xls as well as xlsx files or pass only one extension depending on your requirement.
