AdminData imports

Data import configurations let you load records from CSV files on a schedule — for example a nightly user feed. Each configuration tells the system which files to pick up, when, and how to map their columns to fields.

Browse import configurations

Open Settings → Data Imports.

Create an import configuration

  1. Click New, or open an existing configuration to edit.
  2. Name — a display name for the configuration.
  3. File prefix — files whose names start with this are processed (e.g. sponsors_ matches sponsors_*.csv).
  4. Header row — enable if the first CSV row contains column names; disable if the file starts with data.
  5. Schedule — how often to run (e.g. daily or weekly) and, for those, the time of day.
  6. Column mappings — map each CSV column (by header name or index) to the system field it fills.
  7. Save.

Files are picked up from your tenant's import directory (data_sync/{tenant}/imports/ by default, or an override you set).

Assign users to a group

For a user import, map a column to the User Group field to place each user in a group as they import. The value can be a group name or a Parent > Child path, and behaves exactly as in an interactive user import — see Assign users to a group during import.

Availability

Data Imports may not be enabled for every tenant. If you don't see it under Settings, it isn't enabled for yours.
