CSV Importer - Ability to map all Custom Fields
in progress

Joe Baye
Be able to map the existing custom fields right from the beginning rather than going through the whole import process and to map new custom import fields to existing ClickUp custom fields. It's an extra step

Is anyone else experiencing issues with the new importer? All the files are mapped and show the correct data when going thru the process. However when finalizing, only about 5% of the data actually imports.

Zach
Michael Crissey: hey Michael I definitely believe you but could you share some more info for our team? Are you having issues when you're mapping CFs or maybe the delimiter step? Or are there no clear signs as to what is failing, it just does?

Zach Below are two screenshots. The first 'Upload Screen' shows the final mapping and all data is there. Everything lines up and appears to be good to go.
The second screenshot 'Imported', are all the line items from the import process, but hardly any of the data is there.

We are currently unable to to import data into a relationship field . I am wondering why and if the new CSV importer will allow us to do so

Michael Crissey
Zach - any update to share on CSV Importer upgrade?

Hi, I had signed up for beta testing for this feature but didn't receive any confirmation or access to test it in my workspace. Could you please let me know when is this feature releasing?

Zach
For everyone who signed up for the beta I posted below, it has been turned on in your Workspace!
Please send all your feedback to this email:
which will post your comments directly to a task that our engineering team will review.
Thank you 🙏

Hi Zach - is there an easy way to tell whether this has been turned on for our account? I filled in the form, but I can't see a way to map custom fields.

Felipe Covas
It would be great if we could import spreadsheets to update existing records. For example, if I have 10 cards created, it is necessary to go up a base to update the 10 that already exist, and create new records, if it is not already on the destination list.

Felipe Covas agree! We are consistently trying to clean up data and use ClickUp as the most up to date tool, but not being able to update existing records via load makes that not possible at scale for us.

Felipe Covas
Miriam Daub Exactly, Miriam!

Hey everyone!
We're excited to announce an updated version of our Spreadsheet Importer (also known as the CSV Importer), and we'd love to offer some of you an exclusive sneak peek. This new version includes the ability to map additional custom fields that were previously unavailable, along with significant style enhancements to the importer.
If you're interested in signing up for early access, please do so here.
We'll be turning this beta on shortly this week (I'll post when we do it).
Thank you!

Zach This is excellent, exactly what we need. I tried to submit the form, but it is saying the form doesn't exist.

Zach
Kevin Struck: Can you please try again: https://forms.clickup-stg.com/333/f/ad-1889765/SUZ7UYD9C1S5LNB5A1

Zach, seems for whatever reason, I cannot access the form from my company network, but I can reach it on my phone, so I will fill it out that way. Sorry about that.

Zach does this version have the capability to import existing task field updates? Or just new tasks?
Just curious if it also contains the capability to update existing tasks. Great to see it either way! the team has definitely been hard at work.

Carl Erwich
Zach, does the beta switch the entire workspace or just for a specific user?

Zach
Carl Erwich it's for the whole Workspace
Vincent D'Amico it doesn't include the ability to update existing tasks at the moment.
For those who signed up, we have turned on the feature in your Workspace! Please give it a go and let us know if you run into anything that we should know about!

Zach We need to simplify the way we import into a specific location, even if it's an existing list. Also, it is important to show first only the custom fields of that list (if it is a new list, then show first CF from its folder or space).
Then, give me the option to see other CF I have access to in the workspace.

Zach YAY!

Bruno Canguçu
I have a suggestion. I had difficulty importing data from a CSV file into ClickUp, specifically a date field. I wanted to import only the date without the time, but it always sets the time to 4:00 a.m. It would be helpful to have the option to import just the date.

Merged in a post:
Match customs fields automatically

Carl Erwich
In the custom fields mapper on IMPORT scan the source file and automatically map the fields so you dont need to go through a long list.
