Data Processing Failure - Always Returns CSV Format

[davinunes]

Description:

When clicking the "Process" button, the data is not being processed correctly. Regardless of the selected output format or any other parameters, the response always comes back in CSV format.

Steps to Reproduce:

Go to the relevant page or section where the "Process" button is located.
Fill in the necessary filters and options.
Click on the "Process" button.
Observe that the data returned is always in CSV format, even if a different format was selected.
Expected Behavior:

The application should process the data according to the selected output format and return the data in the specified format (e.g., JSON).

Actual Behavior:

The response is always in CSV format, irrespective of the format option selected or any other parameters provided.

Additional Information:

The issue appears to be with the processing logic or configuration as it does not honor the format selection.
The problem persists across different filters and settings, leading to incorrect data handling and display.
