Recently, one of our customers reported that they were unable to import contacts into the Dynamics 365 CE environment. They received the following error during the import:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

If you’re facing the same issue, don\u2019t worry \u2014 I\u2019ll walk you through the steps I followed to identify and fix<\/strong> this error.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check Duplicates<\/strong> Field in Import file<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first thing I did was open the import file and check if the same field (column) was listed more than once. But everything looked fine \u2014 no field was repeated in the file.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check for Duplicate Display Name for Field<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the past, I\u2019ve seen issues during data export when two fields in Dynamics 365 have the same display name. So I thought that might be the problem here too. I looked into the system and found that there were two fields with the exact same display name. To test it, I renamed one of them and tried the import again. But I still got the same error.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check for Plugin Tracing<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then I turned on plugin tracing<\/strong> in Dynamics 365 to see if there were any errors logged that could help. But I didn\u2019t find anything related to this import issue in the logs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check Network logs<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next, I opened the browser\u2019s Developer Tools<\/strong> and checked the Network tab<\/strong> while trying the import again. I was hoping it might show which field was causing the error.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the network trace, I saw this message:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

As you can see, there aren\u2019t many details here either. After trying many things, I finally discovered that the issue was caused by this specific field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Since this was an import file for the Contact entity, it seems that this field was causing the error. After removing the field from the import file, everything worked fine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hope it will help someone!!
