Import Excel Yes/No to Dataverse Table

Posted on by 1,265

I have an Excel sheet with a column containing either "Yes" or "No".  When importing (to a Yes/No Choice field), it appears this is creating an error.  Is there something I need to do to the Excel sheet values?

I have the same question (0)

    Go to the table you want to import data to, click open in excel

    You can then see how data are structured in excel view, for example, Yes/No field are stored as TRUE / FALSE, use this format to translate your data, and then paste them to the excel sheet you just downloaded (the sheet you download here has a dynamic link to dataverse so you can manipulate directly)

    Remember to use "publish" button on the right hand side panel to publish your data to dataverse

    I just answered this questions with a detailed work through for how to solve it, I don't know what's going on maybe someone just deleted my post 

     

    Basically go to the page of your table, click edit in excel, and you can see how Yes No field are stored, they should be "TRUE / FALSE"
