Collections export does not work as expected. Edge Version 81.0.381.0

First I want to wish everyone a happy new year, which started with a really cool Edge update, but there are some errors in the collections part. After adding a site and a note to a new collection...

ph_007 For me this was because I had no space in my OneDrive. Once I had cleared up space, exporting to Word worked. I believe this feature opens a new document in Word Online, which is why it doesn't work without space in OneDrive. Hope this helps!

Hi, yes you're right, when I export a collection to Word or Excel, they are automatically saved in my OneDrive, meaning I don't have to save them manually after creating them, so if you at least don't have a few kilobytes, not even megabytes then I assume it fails..but a message saying there is not enough space in OneDrive would be appreciated

Hi,
I already noticed before that Collections are saved to personal OneDrive, but there I only used 60MB of 5GB. And how mentioned above, "Send to Excel" works perfectly fine and the excel sheets show up in the "Microsoft Edge Collections" folder. I only get the "not successful" message when I try "Send to Word". (For details see attachment)
Thanks for every response and your time 🙂

  Umm are you still using Edge version 81? if not which channel you're on?
  
  I'm trying "sent to word" in 2 Edge instances:
  Edge Version 81.0.416.58 (Official build) stable (64-bit)
  Edge Version 84.0.488.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit)
  
  and they are successful..

    My official post is quite old now, but its interesting that I still experience that bug 😞
