Hello, I am currently working in a Litium 8 project where we have a few custom field types (similar to the “FilterField”-field that is included in the Accelerator). Is it possible to make these fields import and exporterable with the Excel import/export in Litium?

Litium version: 8.6.1

I think this section is relevant for you, [Create custom field types](https://docs.litium.com/documentation/litium-platform/litium-field-framework-(data-modeling)/create-custom-field-types#Convert%20the%20field%20between%20entity%20and%20Excel%20columns%20data%C2%A0)
