Some settings cannot be modified in the data file or import file during the data import so the dashboards can work properly. For instance:
* You cannot add new columns between already imported columns:
** New columns must be added at the end of the file;
* Columns titles cannot be modified after the first import:
** The columns nicknames can be modified in [[Input Data Format]], but the dashboard's objects created previously will keep the previous nickname;
** You must remove and add the column to update the dashboard's object nickname;
* The columns cannot be removed from the file after the first import;
* The columns position cannot be modified after the first import;
* The columns data type (text, value, date) cannot be modified after the first import;
