 * I’m not a current user, though I installed the plugin to see if this feature 
   is available (and I couldn’t figure it out!).
 * Normally when using Leaflet, I load in marker data from a json file. Is that 
   possible with this plugin? And if so, where is that option?
 * If it’s not supported, then do you recommend I convert the json to csv, and then
   import it?
 * Thanks!

 * Hi,
    the plugin uses json to load markers for layer maps – anyway loading custom
   json files directly is not supported yet, it is planned to be added together 
   with support for KML with a future pro release. Converting json to csv will not
   help here, as the xlsx/xls/csv/ods importer was made to easily manage existing
   maps with all their metadata, not with features available from JSON. best, Robert

 * Thanks Robert.
 * And if I have data that is originally from ArcGIS, then I should just convert
   it to xlsx/xls/csv/ods matching the fields in your template, then import?

 * yes, the columns from the import template needs to be exactly matched for the
   import to run successfully…
 * PS: for pro support please use [https://www.mapsmarker.com/helpdesk](https://www.mapsmarker.com/helpdesk)–
   giving pro support on wordpress.org is actually against the rules…

 * If the ArcGIS data is in JSON format, we can convert it to CSV in a way that 
   exactly matches the template.
 * Just send us a message at [json-csv.com](https://json-csv.com)
