Thank you for this tool!

Enhancement request (please):

Please add functionality so a person could paste in field metadata from a spreadsheet (like Excel or Google Sheets) or upload a csv file or both.

To go along with that, please consider enabling a user to download a template .csv file that the user could then fill out in the user's favorite spreadsheet program, save, and upload. The template's columns could be something like this:

  1. Label
  2. Name
  3. Type
  4. Length
  5. Description
  6. Help Text
  7. Required [Y/N]
  8. Unique - Case [I]nsensitive or [S]ensitive
  9. External ID [Y/N]
  10. <ProfileName> - View [Y/N]
  11. <ProfileName> - Edit [Y/N]

The last two columns would be repeated for each profile in the user's Salesforce instance.

Yes, of course, the tool would need to interpret and validate any data that is pasted or uploaded.

  1. Blank values in the Y/N columns would be interpreted as No/False.
  2. A blank value in the Unique column would also be interpreted as No/False.
