Hi @Serve, I’ve tried a couple of methods, but unfortunately I don’t think there’s any way around this. My suggestion is to replace your commas with a ;, |, or / in your options.

I’ve made a feature request on your behalf to allow for a changeable delimiter, if you’d like to upvote it here.

The only other technical way is to import via the API using array values

{ 
  "field_xx": [
    "Part before comma 1, part after comma 1", 
    "Part before comma 2, part after comma 2"
]}

I also have a solution here that I built to import records via the live app, which would get around your issue.
