Import Excel to Dataverse

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hi

I can't quite understand what I am doing wrong here. I am trying to import a simple Excel file with numerous columns into a Dataverse table. 

 

I have created a new Dataverse table and created some columns which I want to map to the Excel columns. However, whenever I choose toe IMPORT DATA FROM EXCEL, I can only see the PRIMARY column (in this case 'NAME') and also a column labelled the name of the table. All other columns which I have created aren't in the list to map to? I can see some standard columns, but none of the ones which I have created?

 

Any thoughts?!

 

Best wishes.
