CSV Import Bugs

Open devanshk opened this issue 8 years ago • 4 comments

Bulk importing grades has two major issues right now

  1. CSV must be encoded as ASCII-8BIT and crashes for UTF-8 files

  2. Fields must be wrapped in quotations to be imported properly

This is a better description of the issues in #647, so I'll close that issue and leave this one open.

The solution for this should also detect if unicode byte order markers are present and strip and/or process them. (computing services had a report today from someone whose roster would not upload because the header was misdetected because of the presence of a BOM character)
