8. By following these steps, your file will be converted to Microsoft Excel’s Comma Separated Values File format (.csv).

2) Date Format – 

 Please check the date format in your exported CSV file, it should be in dd-mm-yyyy hh:mm format.

 Follow the steps below to change the date format if the date format is different:

6. Change the format to ‘dd-mm-yyyy hh:mm‘. Please repeat the same process for ‘lastvisitDate’ and ‘lastResetTime’ columns.

3) Number of Columns –

Please verify the number of columns in your exported CSV file. If there are any extra columns apart from id, name, username, email, password, block, sendEmail, registerDate, lastvisitDate, activation, params, lastResetTime, resetCount, otpKey, otep, requireReset, authProvider, group, and profile, kindly remove those additional columns.

4) Special Characters:
If your users have special characters like ö, ü etc. to the username, name etc, then it will skip those users and import other users. Therefore, kindly ensure to eliminate any special characters from the user details before initiating the import.
