Good Afternoon

I’m new to Bet Angel. I have imported a rules file to my Guardian from a friends account, but it won’t work for me. It requires a CSV file to be accessed, maybe that’s the problem. The same file is working on my friends account. I do have the CSV file on my computer, but it doesn’t link

Does anyone have an idea what could be the problem, or what I’m talking about?!

As I said on the other thread: -

If the automation is reading from a CSV then it will almost certainly be the issue.

The rules file only contains the logic, it doesn’t include the external CSV itself or the file path. On your friend’s machine the CSV will be in a specific location and the rule will be pointing to that exact path. On your PC that file either doesn’t exist or the path is different, so the rule will quietly fail.

Yes, I think that is the issue. I thought I could resolve it by changing the username from my friends file to that of my computer, but no luck.
