Multiple item creation / association with Excel Import
It is not possible to import data and simultaneously create MULTIPLE items in a separate workspace app. In other words, I cannot associate many items at once if they are another app's items. For example, I have a "products" app in a workspace, and company "accounts" in another workspace...but cannot reference multiple products to an account in one easy import. I've tried separating the text/string with semi-colon, and semi-colon+space.

Hi Candice,
Happy to see you were able to find the answer. :)

OHHH wait...the answer to this was buried deep in the comments of another Excel import inquiry. Ensure the relationship items have a LINE BREAK in between them (line break = CTL+J in Excel, ensure not just a semicolon or comma). Works beautiful but this nuance could be more prominent in the user training (would prevent a lot of headache, I think).
