This is a test collection (v2)
test_collection.postman_collection.zip
So, v2 fails to import of the above collection however 2.1 of this test collection is imported. But sadly my original v2.1 collection fails to import.

Okay, so upon further testing I have came to the root cause of the issue!

test.postman_collection.zip
This above collection of V2.1 Fails too. The reason is because it has empty request inside it.
When I mean empty request I mean nothing inside the requests.

Also, the error in the console Cannot read property 'raw' of null matches my findings. So, I thing this is a bug that some people may have or may not (if they dont have any empty requests in their collection)

So, this line github.com/hoppscotch/hoppscotch@b9deec1487/components/collections/ImportExport.vue (L337)
Should first check if url.raw is not null.
Hence to prevent Cannot read property 'raw' of null.
