I'm trying to queue some outbound calls and am receiving an error that csv file not properly formatted.
Here is a sample:
“destination”,“first_name”,“last_name”
“1234567899”,“Steve”,“Smith”

What is the issue?
thank you

Your file is using apostrophes/curly quotes instead of straight quotation marks. They look extremely similar (" vs “) but apostrophes/curly quotes are more curved. If you update your file to use only straight quotations, it should work.

We've added a request to our feature request list to support both curly and straight quotes, and we'll let you know once this has been implemented in a future release.
