“Supermetrics is a Bitter Experience! We can pull data from nearly any tool, schedule updates, manipulate data in Sheets, and push data back into our systems.”
The search for alternative delimiters for HubSpot’s multiple checkbox CSV import is ultimately futile. HubSpot’s CSV parser only recognizes semicolons for multiple checkbox values, yet simultaneously misinterprets them as column separators, leaving no viable CSV-based solution.
Here’s why alternative delimiters like pipes, commas, or custom characters simply don’t work, and the superior solution that eliminates delimiter problems entirely.
Eliminate delimiter restrictions completely using Coefficient
CoefficientHubSpotHubSpotrenders the delimiter problem obsolete by eliminating CSV imports altogether. You can use any separator in your spreadsheet cells and organize checkbox data however makes sense for your workflow, while Coefficient handles the technical translation toandrequirements.
How to make it work
Step 1. Use any delimiter format in your spreadsheet.
Format your data with commas (“Option A, Option B, Option C”), pipes (“Option A | Option B | Option C”), line breaks (multiple lines within a cell), or no delimiter at all with separate columns for each option.
Step 2. Choose flexible data structures that work for you.
Organize checkbox data in wide format (one column per checkbox option with TRUE/FALSE), long format (single column with multiple values), or hybrid approaches using formulas to build dynamic selections.
Step 3. Let Coefficient handle the technical translation.
Connect your spreadsheet to HubSpot through Coefficient’s direct API communication. The tool automatically converts your preferred format like “Red | Blue | Green” into HubSpot’s required structure: [“Red”, “Blue”, “Green”].
Step 4. Focus on logical data organization instead of delimiter limitations.
No intermediate CSV file means no parsing errors and no delimiter conflicts. You can concentrate on organizing your data logically in spreadsheets while Coefficient manages the technical requirements.
