Import not working for md files

I am trying to import markdown files and it is not doing anything when I select the file to import. I am not dragging onto the object type, I am create a new object type and selecting import and selecting file as support says to do so it doesn't create as an attachment. Nothing happens.

If I rename the file to .txt, and do the same again it imports it fine including formatting based on markdown. Appears to be a bug. Really causing a pain point for me right now, any solutions or workarounds?

Thanks for reporting this, it does sound like a bug with .md single-file import. As a workaround for now, renaming to .txt (as you found) or using Bulk Import for folders/ZIPs of Markdown files might help: https://docs.capacities.io/reference/bulk-import. There was a recent fix for some Markdown import issues, so if this still happens on the latest version, please add your OS, app version, and a sample file here so the team can reproduce it.
