Profile answers importing now supported!

With the new release of Accudemia, one of the new features added is the possibility to import profile answers. Profile answers does not have to be mapped if you are importing from a CSV file. The reason why it works this way is because you can have several questions across different pages. Instead, profile answers require specific headers. The format of the header is @Profile(Page=X, Question=Y) where X represents the number of the page and Y represents the number of the question to set. For example, if your profile questionnaire has 2 pages with 3 questions each, you should have 6 columns with the following headers: @Profile(Page=1, Question=1) @Profile(Page=1, Question=2) @Profile(Page=1, Question=3) @Profile(Page=2, Question=1) @Profile(Page=2, Question=2) @Profile(Page=2, Question=3) Also, you can use a shorter version or the header by not specifying the words “Page” and “Question”, for example @Profile(1,2) for the page #1, question #2.
