When executing an automation job on server either with task Export to Image or Export to PDF, the export results in a blank image with message "Failed to create export view for view of  type: Spotfire Dxp.Application.Visuals.VisualStandin" as below,
This error is caused if the Automation Services is not updated with the respective CustomVisual extensions. In order to resolve the issue update the Automation Services and then run the automation job with tasks Export to Image or Export to PDF.
