So I've tried to import this several times can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong. This is just the Example on their blog: $id,title,author,year,available f3k91x8b2q,Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone,J.K. Rowling,1997,true mz7lq3dp5c,The Fellowship of the Ring,J.R.R. Tolkien,1954,true x0v4p8ncq2,To Kill a Mockingbird,Harper Lee,1960,false kq9nmv13ru,The Great Gatsby,F. Scott Fitzgerald,1925,true p8lw39xsd1,Catch-22,Joseph Heller,1961,true v42cj0quxp,Pride and Prejudice,Jane Austen,1813,true

then i tried this: $id,$createdAt,$updatedAt,title,author,year,available f3k91x8b2q,2025-08-10T12:34:56.000Z,2025-08-10T12:34:56.000Z,Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone,J.K. Rowling,1997,true mz7lq3dp5c,2025-08-11T09:15:00.000Z,2025-08-11T10:00:00.000Z,The Fellowship of the Ring,J.R.R. Tolkien,1954,true x0v4p8ncq2,2025-08-12T08:00:00.000Z,2025-08-12T08:30:00.000Z,To Kill a Mockingbird,Harper Lee,1960,false

At the bottom it said it was importing one row for half an hour. And when I reloaded that was gone and there was still no row. I tried again and said import failed.

TL;DR
Developers having trouble importing a CSV file into their system. They attempted to import with additional columns for $createdAt and $updatedAt, but it's not working properly. The system seems to be stuck on importing one row for a long time before failing. Solution: Check the formatting and headers of the CSV file to match the system's requirements. Make sure the data aligns correctly with the expected fields for successful import.
