CSV Field upload for a dropdown field

Hi All, running into an error when trying to upload a field from a csv file into a form field has dropdown options.  The field on the csv is identical to the option in the form.

 

[422] Invalid Parameter: custom workfront field "custom dropdown field value"

Turns out, that we had numerical value fields for each option in the custom dropdown field. That was preventing the upload. We switched the csv fields to their correlating numbers in Workfront and were able to get the scenario to run.  Thanks for the feedback everyone.

Can you provide more information like a screenshot or example? If I had to guess its not formatting the array properly. One thing you can do to test is to read the value in fusion and make sure your CSV value matches that exactly.

I suspect you have a map wrong somewhere. It appears that the field you are trying to populate is "custom dropdown field value", not whatever field it actually is you're trying to populate.

I would verify that the label/name and the value inside of Workfront are identical.
