Hi there,

just a quick follow-up, the import is now working well for the most part. Thanks a lot for that!

The only thing still missing after the import is the descriptions of the views. Column descriptions however, are imported correctly.

Example JSON (Nextcloud Hub 25 Autumn 32.0.6, Tables 1.0.5) :

{
    "title": "Testproject",
    "emoji": "\u2764\ufe0f",
    "columns": [
        {
            "id": 349,
            "tableId": 47,
            "title": "Column One",
            "createdBy": "admin",
            "createdByDisplayName": "admin",
            "createdAt": "2026-04-04 19:32:03",

    ],
    "views": [
        {
            "id": 283,
            "tableId": 47,
            "title": "Testview",
            "description": "View Description does not get imported",
            "emoji": "\ud83d\ude0e",
            "ownership": "admin",

            "createdAt": "2026-04-04 19:32:39",
            "lastEditBy": "admin",

            "columns": [],

                    "readonly": false,
                    "mandatory": false
                }
            ],
            "sort": [],
            "isShared": false,
            "favorite": false,
            "onSharePermissions": null,
            "hasShares": false,
            "rowsCount": 0,
            "ownerDisplayName": "admin",
            "filter": []
        }
    ],
    "description": "",
    "tablesVersion": "1.0.5"
}

Many thanks again and best regards!
