Foo Developer created FINERACT-2729:
---------------------------------------
Summary: Bulk import rejects .xlsx files (e.g. downloaded from
Google Sheets)
Key: FINERACT-2729
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FINERACT-2729
Project: Apache Fineract
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Client, Organization
Reporter: Foo Developer
Assignee: Foo Developer
Attachments: image-2026-07-31-16-01-13-514.png
The bulk import endpoint ({{{}BulkImportWorkbookServiceImpl.importWorkbook{}}})
only accepts legacy {{.xls}} Excel files. Modern {{.xlsx}} files (e.g.,
exported from Google Sheets) are rejected with:
{{error.msg.invalid.file.extension: Uploaded file extension is not recognized.}}
Additionally, the implementation always uses {{{}HSSFWorkbook{}}}, which cannot
parse {{.xlsx}} files.
h2. Expected Behavior
Support both {{.xls}} and {{.xlsx}} uploads by accepting the OOXML MIME type
and using the appropriate workbook parser.
h2. Verification
Verified using {{POST /clients/uploadtemplate}} with a {{.xlsx}} file exported
from Google Sheets. The file is accepted and parsed successfully, and the
request proceeds to normal business validation.
