      Issue Summary

      Currently JA exports are exported in an Excel XML 2003 format. Some companies actively block this format to prevent malware exploitation. Excel is not always the default spreadsheet application for companies, which can cause issues with opening this file.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. https://xyz.jiraalign.com/requestgrid
      2. More Actions
      3. Export Features

      Expected Results

      Modern secure standard such as CSV (platform-agnostic) or  XLSM would be compliant

      Actual Results

      Workaround

      Currently there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available
