Hi,

I have some multiple select fields. How do I have to format the content of the csv-file to get my content into these fields.

E. g. my field "skills" contains the options skill1, skill2, skill3 and so on ... Now I have a user which has chosen skill1 and skill2 and skill3. In my csv-file in the format looks like this: "skill1,skill2,skill3" - but with this format the data is ignored during the import. How do I need to format it so that the import works?

Thanks,
Uwe

Hi,
thanks for this question, we have not mentioned this in the documentation. Sorry!!

The data to insert in CSV must be the same on DB, 2 examples:
- Multiple fields is stored in JSON format so ["skill1","skill2"]
- Date field is stored in SQL format so YYYY-MM-YY

We will add this on documentation.:)

I have just tried it but it does not work. All other data is imported correctly but the multiple field remains empty. If I look at the database I can see only the first bracket [ - but after this no data.

on the screenshot you can see in rows 1 and 2 the data I have entered in the frontend. Row 4 is the data I have tried to import.
