How to fix CSV import errors

Invalid CSV encoding

You might encounter this error if your CSV file has non-standard encoding - often the case when exporting from Excel, Notepad, or other tools. We recommend using UTF-8 encoding.

The easiest way to fix this is by opening your file in Google Sheets and re-exporting it:

1. Import the CSV file into Google Sheets

   Open Google Sheets, click File > Import, and upload your CSV file.

   
   

   

2. Export the file as CSV

   Go to File > Download > Comma Separated Values (.csv).

   
   

   

Your new file will be correctly encoded in UTF-8 and should import without errors.
