    Hi Anonymous ,

    By my tests and research, this error should be caused by your incorrect json format.

    Please correct your json format.

    By my test, if you mofify your json format like below, we could import the json file successfully.

    [
   {
      "timestamp":"2019-05-11T22:39:13.908347",
      "current_ma":22,
      "voltage_mv":229979,
      "energy_wh":15,
      "power_mw":0
   },
   {
      "timestamp":"2019-05-11T22:39:18.843627",
      "current_ma":22,
      "voltage_mv":230069,
      "energy_wh":15,
      "power_mw":0
   },
   {
      "timestamp":"2019-05-11T22:39:23.935679",
      "current_ma":22,
      "voltage_mv":229988,
      "energy_wh":15,
      "power_mw":0
   },
   {
      "timestamp":"2019-05-11T22:39:28.865907",
      "current_ma":21,
      "voltage_mv":230048,
      "energy_wh":15,
      "power_mw":0
   },
   {
      "timestamp":"2019-05-11T22:39:33.810613",
      "current_ma":21,
      "voltage_mv":230081,
      "energy_wh":15,
      "power_mw":0
   }
]
