Spline to Polyline Add-on outdated?

I am trying to import a DXF into Corel Draw that contains splines. Corel Draw has problems recognizing splines, the solution I've found on this forum is to use the Spline to Polyline app, however, I cannot seem to find this app in Fusion360 currently as it was created 7 years ago and the interface has changed a lot.

 

Can someone tell me if this addon still functions, if so, where is it located?

 

I cannot update the Corel Draw to a newer version to take care of the spline issue that way as it's not mine (it's at a makerspace).

Seems to be still ok. Latest version is 1.3.0.

Looks like it's been removed from the store right after I made this post?
Can you locate it?
The page is unavailable for me right now, in the instructions it showed the app would create a new option under the "create dxf" in the drop down of the sketch menu, that is not there for me.

Strange, this was unavailable to me a little while ago.

Where is the app accessed? Which menu?

 

It says it's running in my app menu, but I cannot find the location to actually use it.

In a first step, editing the sketch is needed.

Hmm...now it won't let me use the application as it says I need to select a sketch first. I am selecting the sketch and it still gives me this error message.

I created a selection set to see if that's what it meant, tried the app on that, it gave me another error code, then I went back to the normal sketch, tried the app again and this time it worked. Screwy.

The application only seems to work if I create a selection set, try it on this selection set to trigger this error message, then go back to the initial sketch and try it again, only after triggering this error does the app work.
