  • There appear to be two unused arguments for the Import Excel To CSV smart service. Drilling into the plugin, it appears that ExcelHelperUtils.java::convertExcelToCSV does not use numberOfColumnsToReadInRow or rowNumberToReadFrom . It appears that implementation of either would be straightforward, given that they modify iterator start or exit conditions.  Would it be possible to get this fixed in the next version of the Excel Tools plugin? Is there a way I can contribute these changes?
