Importing Different Field Types
Before you begin importing, the new field must already be created in the contact card settings (Learn how to create fields here).
📋 Short Answer:
No specific format is required. Short answers can be imported like any other field.
👆 Single Response:
Create the response options in the contact card settings before importing. The import process cannot create new options.
If an imported value doesn’t match an existing option, the corresponding line in your file will result in an error.
Example: Each contact can only have 1 proposition/answer for the custom field
✅ Checkbox:
Like Single Response fields, you must;
Create the options in the contact card settings before importing.
Each "answer" must have its own column in your import file.
When importing, select the "Question" column multiple times to match the number of "answer" columns.
Example: Unlike a single response, each contact can have multiple propositions/answers for the custom field
🔢 Numeric:
Ensure that only numerical characters are present in the values you're importing. No specific format is required.
