HubSpot’s CSV import parser treats semicolons as column separators, not value delimiters for multiple checkbox fields. This creates an impossible situation where the required semicolon delimiter causes import failures.
Here’s how to bypass CSV formatting entirely and sync multiple checkbox data directly from your spreadsheet to HubSpot.
Skip CSV imports and connect your spreadsheet directly using Coefficient
CoefficientHubSpotHubSpoteliminates CSV formatting requirements by connecting your Google Sheets or Excel directly toand. Instead of struggling with delimiter configurations, you can structure your multiple checkbox data naturally in columns and push updates without parser conflicts.
How to make it work
Step 1. Import your existing HubSpot contacts into your spreadsheet.
Use Coefficient’s import function to pull current contact records with their existing checkbox values. This ensures you’re working with up-to-date data and won’t overwrite existing selections.
Step 2. Structure your checkbox data in a natural format.
Add columns for your checkbox properties and enter multiple values using simple comma separation (e.g., “Option1, Option2, Option3”). You can also use separate columns for each checkbox option with TRUE/FALSE values.
Step 3. Export the updated data back to HubSpot.
Use Coefficient’s UPDATE action to sync the checkbox values back to HubSpot. The tool automatically converts your spreadsheet format into HubSpot’s required structure, properly handling multiple checkbox values without delimiter conflicts.
Step 4. Schedule regular syncs to keep data current.
Set up automated exports to run hourly, daily, or weekly. This maintains data integrity while allowing for bulk updates of multiple checkbox properties without manual CSV uploads.
