In order to pass strings correctly in CSV we are forced to wrap them with Quotation marks, otherwise Excel will treat the data as a number or other.

Hey ​@Ben Edwards, fellow Bobber here and running into the same issue of unable to wrap fields with quotation marks in CSV file for SFTP. I have fields that have special characters and when trying various formula methods, nothing’s worked. Were you able to figure something out on your end to make it work?

Hi ​@Lyndzi Phan - Thanks for jumping in! 🙏🏻
As Ben mentioned, this is currently expected behavior — at the moment, there's no built-in solution to wrap fields with quotation marks in CSV exports from Bob.
That said, I’ve gone ahead and passed your feedback along to our Product team so they’re aware of the need. We really appreciate you sharing your experience — it helps us prioritize future improvements.
