Cannot Import Date to CMS

I looked through some of the other date import posts, and can’t figure out what is wrong. I made sure to:

  • checked my site timezone
  • have tried the following formats
  • ISO (2023-01-15T12:00+01:00) and YYYY-MM-DD

Here is an example of a date I’m trying to import:

2023-01-15

When I try to map the field it says "the imported data isn’t compatible with this field. The field is a date field.


Here is my public share link: LINK
(how to access public share link)

My dates were in a date format. Changing to text plain fixed it.

In the csv file, make sure dates have double quotes “2023-12-18” which represents text.

Hey Webster, nice work finding your solution.
In general, the approach I use is;

  • Create the structure I want in the CMS first
  • Add a test record
  • Export as CSV

That way I can see the exact formatting and structure Webflow prefers for the import, and I prepare the import CSV accordingly.
