Hello everyone,

I'm facing an issue when trying to import a CSV file into Miro's Mind Map app. Despite multiple attempts and format adjustments, the hierarchy is not being recognized properly, and I either get a single node or a flat list instead of a structured mind map.

What I’ve Tried:

Using the Parent → Child format (two distinct columns).
Testing different separators (, - ; - \t for tabulation).
Removing any empty root nodes.
Formatting as multiple columns (Level 1 → Level 2 → Level 3).
Ensuring the file is UTF-8 encoded and correctly structured.

Issue Observed:

When I import the file, Miro doesn’t display the hierarchy correctly, and I only see one node or a flat list, instead of a properly structured mind map.

Example of the CSV File Tested:

Parent,Child "7 Steps to Attract 10-20 Clients per Month","1. Growth Phases" "1. Growth Phases","Expansion → Attract more clients" "1. Growth Phases","Chaos → Too many requests, poor organization" "1. Growth Phases","Adjustment → Structuring your business" "7 Steps to Attract 10-20 Clients per Month","2. Social Media as a Lead System" "2. Social Media as a Lead System","Don't see social media as a bonus" "2. Social Media as a Lead System","Transform social media into a conversion system"

Has anyone encountered this issue before? Is there a specific format Miro requires for proper mind map structuring?

Thanks in advance for your help!
