QUESTION:
I just tried exporting the PowerGRID results grid and for some reason the ID field is a URL in the XLS file instead of the ID itself.
Why?
ANSWER:
Due to the nature of the PowerGRID, if you choose to export to a "Formatted XLS File", it will export the URL. If you export to one of the "Data File" options, it will export the ID only.
More information on Exporting the Grid Results can be found here (select the Quick Link "Exporting Grid Results").
