Use the "CDT to Excel" node from the Excel Tools plug-in. Create a generic CDT consisting of X number of plaintext fields (where X represents the maximum number of columns you might need). Cast your data into this CDT type and pass it into a process instance using a!startProcess. Should be fairly easy.

Can you gives more details on which part you are having trouble with?

- Create a process which calls the Export to Excel Smart Service

- Add a script node that calls a an expression rule that returns 2 lists (positions and values)

- Configure the Export Process Report to Excel node with an empty process report and the positions and values

Positions and values should look like this

positions: {"A1", "A2"}

values: {"value 1", "value2"}

I usually do this by using docs.appian.com/.../Export_Process_Report_Excel_Smart_Service.html. I use a dummy (empty) process report and use the Custom Cell Positions and Custom Cell Values to manually push to some values to it.

Would a CSV file work for you?
