Description

Hi Team,

when using pac data import on a dataset that contains a multiselect option set it is not updating that field in the target. pac data export appears to export the data effectively. Using Import-CrmDataFile with the data does update it correctly, so assuming it might just be a version mismatch with pac's Xrm.Tooling.ConfigutionMigration

Research direction

Start by reproducing the dataset import with a multiselect option set using pac data import, then compare it with Import-CrmDataFile, which the report says succeeds. Investigate the Xrm.Tooling.ConfigutionMigration version used by pac and verify the result on the target environment. Done means the multiselect field is updated through pac data import.
