When importing the list of leads data from the csv file, Auto detect feature is not working. It displays the message as shown in the attached picture.
But, when I select file format = 'comma separated values', then it works.

Is it only me getting this error ?

Yes, I am.  It appears the "auto-detect" feature shouldn't even be an option given the number of issues users are experiencing with it.

Dan are you able to get it working when you choose CSV as the file type?

This is happening to me as well.  I'm using the "tradeshow-attendees.csv" file.  I even removed the hyphen from the filename as well as remove the extra blank row that gets added when you save the file from Excel (I removed the row using Notepad).  I still get "Invalid file type" error.

Chhabi I saw this issue previously when the filename had a space in it.  The hypen might have a similar issue.  Have you tried this without the hypen?

Thanks Hitoshi for the reply.

Strange, it's working now with the same csv file.
For some reason, I got the mentioned error.

This was the csv file i used: http://community.cdn.marketo.com/tradeshow-attendees.csv

Anyways, it works now. 🙂

I haven't gotten that error. How are you creating your csv file? Can you paste a line of your csv for a sample?
