I'm just trying to do a simple join of LSOA areas and an excel with some ONS data, joining based on the field 'LSOA_code'. The join mode is set to inner and appears to join based on the visual preview below from the joined output port but when I write to gdb, the fields I want to add from the excel don't appear to be exposed in the writer.

The issue is with the attribute names, it looks like names coming from the excel data are not allowable in the gdb, so you will need to rename.

Ah is it just because of the spaces?

Yes, spaces and the % sign
