Amazon Bulk Operations renames all export files to "BulkSheetExport"
Alexander Swade has flagged a regression in Amazon Ads Bulk Operations: export files previously included the date range in the filename, making it straightforward to identify which timeframe a file covered. The download is now always named "BulkSheetExport" regardless of settings.
What changed
A user column has been added to the export table to indicate which team member requested the file, but Swade reports that the column remains empty. The change creates friction for teams working with multiple bulk files across different accounts or timeframes.
Why it matters for advertisers
For you, this means establishing a manual file-renaming convention immediately if your workflow depends on filename-based file identification: and submitting feedback to Amazon, requesting the date range be reinstated in the filename.
