Im using the "Download DataSubset (Cloud)" plugin to generate an excel

benjamins
Im using the "Download DataSubset (Cloud)" plugin to generate an excel spreadsheet that we use to import into another application. The template that is required to import into this third party application is to have a custom first line that just has plain text in line 1, column 1.
I then need the column headings on row 2 and the results starting from line 3.
Is this possible with this plugin or should I use something else?

    There is a possible solution. We used the "Start Process Writer" plugin to start a process from a SAIL form in background. The form shows a waiting message and a reload button (Non-Submit). The reload button checks whether the process created the document using a process report. As the document is ready, the form shows a download link. This way you can create any document.
