Issue importing customers using Template CSV file

[Kevin23]

Hi all

I need some assistance please. I'm unable to import customers using your CSV template. The original CSV template has all the headings in one cell and column. When adding a customer in the same format get the error "Wrong number of fields".

I moved them to individual columns and still get errors "Invalid header - Header names must be no more than 100 characters".

I am trying adding just 1 customer. How can this issue be resolved? This function is not well explained in the support section and lack details. Thanks.

Hi @Kevin23, thanks for posting and welcome to the Community 👋.

I'm sorry to hear you're having issue with the Directory import/export tool. I'd be happy to look into this for you.

When you download the Customer Profile Template, you should have 1 line and 13 columns as shown below.

If your file is displayed differently, could you share a screenshot of what it looks like on your end? Which software are you using to open the file? 

You'll also find more information about importing customers on our Support Centre.
