Exporting Spanish Names to CSV Without Character Issues

Hey, I'm trying to export a list with Spanish names (and characters) to a CSV. But when I export the characters get transformed into symbols. Is there an option to avoid this when downloading CSV? I didn't find the option to download as UTF-8 CSV

When exporting data with special characters like Spanish accents, you can try these steps to minimize character encoding issues: 1. Before exporting: • Create a dedicated "CSV Export View" by duplicating your current view • Keep only the essential columns you need in the export • This will help ensure cleaner data output 2. For the actual export: • Navigate to the 'Actions' menu • Click 'Export' • Select 'Download CSV' If you still experience issues with character encoding, try removing any unnecessary punctuation marks like commas, colons, and semicolons from your data before exporting, as these can sometimes cause interpretation issues in the CSV format.

Hey Lazar - is it possible to pass over the CSV so we can take a look? If you don't want to send it via slack, you can open up this thread in the in app messenger by clicking the "?" in the nav bar of app.clay.com.
