Importing OBJ / 3DM file

I am trying to import a OBJ file make in Rhino into onshape but for some reason I am getting a mix of surfaces and parts. I just want parts. Is there any way someone can troubleshoot this for me?

There are no parts or surfaces in obj (that I've seen):
You may want to try step/stp output to get surfaces:
Remember there are no solids/parts in translation formats or inside onshape for that matter. A part is a state when a manifold encloses a volume.
You can get stuff out of Rhino, you just have to understand the underlying geometry though.
