why is my custom record that i created not available for csv import under custom records in the mapping

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

The reason why your custom record is not available for CSV import under custom records in the mapping is because custom records are not a part of the item record. Therefore, you won't be able to import it with the items. Instead, you need to select 'custom record' as your import type and import the custom records directly, not through the item. If your sublist is referenced as a child record of the item, it still has to be imported separately. Make sure the record type on the import matches up to one of the applied types on the custom field. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
