Attempting to unset the 'Flagged' field via CSV import throws an error

XMLWordPrintable

    • Severity 3 - Minor

      Issue Summary

      For CSV import (admin and non-admin), attempting to unset/clear the 'Flagged' field throws an error:

       

      The value [ {null=0} ] can't be added to the Custom Field [ Flagged ]. The value [ {null=0} ] can't be found or is in the incorrect format.

       

      The 'Flagged' field has two supported values: 'Impediment' and blank. The field can be successfully set to 'Impediment', but clearing/unsetting it via values like blank, space, 0, false, False, and FALSE yield the aforementioned error.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Attempt to import a CSV like this sample:
      Summary,Flagged
      Imported item with Flagged set,TRUE
      Imported item with Flagged unset,FALSE

            2. Proceed through the mapping and validation steps

      Expected Results

      'Flagged' field is unset

      Actual Results

      The below exception is thrown during validation:

      The value [ {null=0} ] can't be added to the Custom Field [ Flagged ]. The value [ {null=0} ] can't be found or is in the incorrect format. 

      Workaround

      The error shown during validation can be ignored, and the user can proceed with the import. Items that experience this error still import and the 'Flagged' field is unset.
