    Hey, thanks for reaching out!This issue could be caused by a few things: 1. Data is not formatted as a proper CSV or contains invalid characters: Try opening the file in Google Sheets and exporting it again as a CSV. 2. The data has “created at” or “updated at” columns: Try deleting these columns before uploading. 3. The data exceeds 50k rows or 72 columns: Reduce the size of your dataset if it’s larger than this limit. If these steps don’t resolve the issue, I’d recommend uploading the file to Google Sheets and sharing it with us (make sure it’s public), so we can take a closer look at what’s going on.Let me know if that helps!
