Convert to File is adding JSON field name to output file

Describe the problem/error/question

I’m using the attached workflow (partial) to modify a CSV file. When I output the results to a actual file, the field name from the JSON object is appended as a row to the beginning of the output file. How can I get rid of this?

What is the error message (if any)?

None

Figured out a workaround.

Export to TXT - not CSV.

I’m thinking there might be a bug in the CSV routine.

Thanks
