<!-- Greeting --> Hi @alexray92! I'm [Dosu](https://go.dosu.dev/dosubot) and I’m helping the superset team. <!-- Answer --> This error is caused by a bug in the import logic: during dashboard import, the code assigns a JSON string to `query_context['form_data']` when it should be a dictionary. This breaks downstream code that expects a dict, leading to the `TypeError` and `AttributeError` you see ([source](https://github.com/apache/superset/blob/829e4d92d91ceae4b43b1ed3b063ffe45377799c/superset/commands/utils.py)). This is a known behavior in Superset's import/export flow—charts may lack a valid query context after import, which can trigger errors and warnings, even if charts and filters appear to work ([source](https://github.com/apache/superset/issues/33615)). The recommended workaround is to manually open and save each chart in the UI after import. This regenerates the query context as a dictionary and resolves the error. If you have many charts, you can automate this with browser automation tools like Cypress ([source](https://github.com/apache/superset/issues/33615)). There is no built-in Superset command or API to bulk-repair these query contexts. Recent pull requests show ongoing work to handle data type mismatches during import/export, but this specific issue with `form_data` as a string is not fully resolved in 4.1.x ([source](https://github.com/apache/superset/pull/34080)). For future imports, always ensure you export all related components (databases, datasets, charts, dashboards) and, after import, open and save each chart to avoid this problem ([source](https://github.com/apache/superset/discussions/34022)). If you want to patch the import logic to fix this at the code level, let me know and I can point you to the relevant code paths. <!-- Dosu Comment Footer --> *To reply, just mention [@dosu](https://go.dosu.dev/dosubot).* --- <sup>How did I do?
