invalid type

Error message

invalid type

What it means

Thrown during profile import when data.type is neither "siyuan-entry-profile" nor "siyuan-entry-profile-bundle" (or a bundle lacks data.profiles): the file parsed and its version is supported, but it is not an entry-visibility profile export at all — likely an unrelated JSON file.

Solutions

1. Verify the file was exported via the entry-visibility profile import/export UI
2. Check the file's type field matches "siyuan-entry-profile" or "siyuan-entry-profile-bundle"
3. Re-export the profile from the correct settings panel

When it happens
