FSRM_E_INVALID_FILENAME

FSRM_E_INVALID_FILENAME (0x8004532A) The filename configured for an FSRM output or action is not valid. It can be caused by reserved characters, an invalid extension, or a generated name that expands to an unsupported value.

What to check

Check the configured output filename and any placeholders used to build it.
Remove characters that are not allowed in Windows file names and confirm the destination path exists.
Test the report or action with a simple static filename before enabling dynamic naming.
