Can anyone tell me why when importing a KB article using a CSV file I always get an import error for a \<table\>..\</table\> ? The HTML works perfectly in a browser so I have no idea why it wouldn’t be valid.

Does it need to be within it’s own \<div\>?

It’s got to be said the HTML rendering of the tables in Hubspot is utterly appalling. So inefficient having the style set on every single row.

Hello @skylightipv, thank you for posting in our Community!

Currently, knowledge base imports have the following limitations: Tables cannot be imported. This is a known limitation of the import tool. You can see it documented in our article on importing knowledge base article [here](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/knowledge-base/import-knowledge-base-articles).

I hope this information helps.

Pam

OK that’s quite a big limitation for anyone with technical documentation.

How far along are Hubspot with the development to allow true HTML editing for KB articles?
