Verified feature request does not already exist?

  • I have searched and found no existing issue

💻

  • Would you like to implement this feature?

Pitch: what problem are you trying to solve?

Is your feature request related to a problem?
Yes. When importing a CSV file and modifying data or mapping fields, clicking outside the import dialog immediately closes it without warning, potentially losing all progress. This often happens by accident and causes frustration.

Describe the solution you'd like
Please add a confirmation prompt before closing the import screen when unsaved changes or field mappings have been made.

For example:

“Are you sure you want to cancel this import? Unsaved changes will be lost.”

Describe alternatives you've considered
None that prevent accidental closure. Currently, it closes instantly with no way to recover work.

Additional context
This behavior breaks the workflow especially for users who need to manually map columns or clean data. A safeguard would significantly improve the UX during import.

Describe your ideal solution to this problem
