@skramp  Thanks for help, truly we figured it out import file needs more than one column . They should add this into a note somewhere becuase some people like to test with simple hostname lists only.

I recreated your case. A csv might not be a valid csv for importing if there is no separator. Please try to add something to your csv so it might look like this:
DisplayName;myfield
-----------;foo
server1.corpnet.abv;server1.corpnet.abv
server2.corpnet.abv;server2.corpnet.abv

While I haven't had the second column, I also have had no results for importing.
