Creating a CSV for Custom Field Imports
How do I create a CSV file for importing custom field values?
To create a CSV file for importing custom field values, you need to include specific fields in your file.
Start by downloading a template CSV file from Zendesk, which will guide you in adding your own field values. Your CSV should include a header row with 'value', 'tag', and 'default' fields. Ensure your file is saved in UTF-8 encoding and does not exceed 3,500 rows. This setup will help you import your values smoothly into Zendesk.
