Dynamics 365 (CRM) Import - Multi-Select Option Set Field Fails

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 5

Seems Microsoft changed the way imports are done in Dynamics 365. In the new workflow, fields that are type "Multi-Select Option Set" fail during import with a message that the source data is the wrong format.  This new import approach must have been released within the last 3 months.  

I notice that during the field mapping step, the system may not be detecting the field type correctly. Below you can see how standard "Option Set" fields have a designation, yet I don't see that associated with multi-select option set type fields.

Not sure the above has any relevance to the issue but thought I would mention it.

Has anyone else run into this?

Thanks.
