How to note multivalues in CSV import

Hi,

I would like to import a CSV file with a multivalue column in it so that it would populate a multivalue field in my list. But don't know how to separate text values that I want in my multivalue field… If I check an exported CSV (export data to csv format), the text multivalues are space separated but if my values have text with spaces in them, I don't understand how that could work.

Don't know if I made myself clear…

Regards,

Hi,
yes, you can upload multiple values data with spaces inside. You only need to mark the separated values with # , like this

option number1#option number2#option 3

in order to match these values with the ones configured at your multiple field configuration.

Hope this helps
