I play on FGUPUG and have created a character campaign to hold my
pcs from there. I have noticed that I have issues retrieving characters from 2 people but not others. I can import from my pc to their server but then I cannot see their server when I try to import from them to my campaign to keep the latest version of the character sheet on my unity. Any ideas why I can import to but not export from these 2 people?
Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance.

They might have special characters in their campaign names, or might have double spaces or end their campaign name with a space. I would check with them about that first.

Thanks! That's something that I didn't think of, I'll check into that.

A few things related to this process:
1) If you're using different computers then you can only import from a GMs campaign on the computer that you joined the campaign from; because you're actually importing from data cache files created locally when you were playing their game.
2) Your PC won't be available for import if you released your PC before you exited the GMs game.

Same pc. I didn't know that releasing before I left would do that but no I don't release.
Thanks for replying

Then check in your <FG app data>\cache directory for a directory with the name of the campaign you joined. There may be an issue with the player cache data being saved.
