    Hi,

    I think the easiest way to do this is that open your csv file by Excel and add two columns(First name and Last name). Then use the feature Text to columns in the toolbar Data to split your Full Name column.

    Steps:

        1. Select context you want to split and click the Text to columns button.

        2. Select your Delimiters and click Next.

        3. Select the Destination in your worksheet and click Finish.

        4. Then you can import this csv into Contact entity.
