Trying to import a dbf (foxpro) into dataverse. I've converted the dbf to a csv BUT everytime I go to Data mode / then Import / hit the upload link ... I get " The Import Service is not available".

I'm trying to make a model driven app, but hard to do if I have no model 😞

Does anyone know either how to turn on the Import service or another way of get tables loaded in the dataverse?

Hello, @dgray304 After converting the dbf to a csv, use Dataflow to load the data into existing Dataverse table that you need to create first.

I have this tutorial to show you how you can load the data from Excel into a Dataverse table and the only thing you will need to change is to use csv instead of excel:https://powerplatformplace.com/f/excel-to-dataverse-migration---part-1

After 10's of 10's of searches and hundreds of articles, post, phone calls to MS I got it working
by purchasing OneDrive for Business. It's amazing that none of the articles, error messages ... even the power apps tech support never mentioned you can't use a personal onedrive.
Anyhow, it works only for using the get data, not from excel. But there is a connector for Excel under the "get data" option.
A silly little note would have saved me a week.
