hey guys quick question.

i'm using excel to access wallet journal information through the API and it calls on some some clumns i don't need.

is there any way to tell the import line which columns to include? for example i'm not interested in the 'current time' one(and various others).

thanks a bunch :)

Short answer is: Not without complicating the import process.

Woo! CSM XI!

trust me getting all the columns at once is a beautiful thing. with google docs i have to ask for 1 column at a time (if xpath can list multiple columns at once idk how to make it happen) and having to setup 9 imports just to pull the info i need from the corp assets api is stupid ridiculus and very tedious
