    How are you uploading the data to Domo? What connector are you using?  You should be able to encapsulate the value containing a comma with double quotes to treat it as a single value:

     

    Column 1, Column 2, Column 3

    one, two, "three, four"

    Hi @user017486 ,

     

    I suggest you to connect your file using file connector and you can user Magic ETL for this, use Repalce text or even combile columns, split columns, etc to do this.

    have you tried saving the file as a tab delimited file and then upload the tab delimited file to Domo?
