Unable to match field while importing .csv with custom fields on Groups and Tags
November 01, 2010, 12:39:52 pm
Hi CiviCRM experts,

I have an .csv file for individual contact import: I can Match most Fields in Step 2, but I can't find Group(s) and Tag(2) options under "Matching CiviCRM Field" dropdown to match my custom Group(s) and Tag(s) - Please HELP! ???

Thanks,
-Rick

Hi,

Unfortunately, that's not an option, but that would be useful indeed. Do you have the php competencies or budget to make it happen ?

While importing contacts through the .csv file, Groups and Tags are not available to match, but those are available in step 3 , Where you can create new Group/Tag Or/And select the existing Group/Tag to assign to the imported contacts. You may need to break the csv file according to Group/Tag and import them seperately according to need.
