Import CSV - SyntaxError: Unexpected token ( in JSON at position 1

Hi,

To help troubleshoot this issue, I have a few questions:

• At what point in the CSV import process do you see this error?
• Do any errors show up in the Developer Log (under Admin Menu in CMSB) when you attempt the import?

Thanks,

• At what point in the CSV import process do you see this error?

Import CSV = ok

Upload file = ok

Select target table = ok

Analyze Data = error

Do any errors show up in the Developer Log (under Admin Menu in CMSB) when you attempt the import?

Yes...

Hello,

It looks likely that there's a difference in PHP version between your dev and live servers; that error shows up only in PHP 7.2+, so I'd guess that your live server is running a newer version. The latest version of the CSV Import plugin (https://www.interactivetools.com/add-ons/csv-import/) has been updated to fix the error - my recommendation would be to update the plugin.

Let me know any other questions!

Thanks,

That solved it. Thanks!
