Importing Submission Data

Whether you're migrating data between projects or importing data from an external database, the Import CSV button allows you to select a CSV file containing data from your local machine and import that data into the given Form or Resource.

When importing submissions through a CSV, each imported submission may trigger any configured as if that submission derived from a form user. When importing a significant number of submissions, consider temporarily disabling actions such as email notifications.

Configuring CSV Files

In order to import data, a properly configured CSV File is required for the import to succeed. The CSV column headers need to map directly to the fields on the form you wish to import data to. Ensure that your column headers match the Property Name of your fields before importing the file.

Use the CSV rows to add different submission entries within the file.

Importing File

When your CSV file is ready, click the Import CSV button within the data tab and select the file.

Selecting the Replace all submissions setting will replace all existing submission entries with the row data inside the CSV file

Once the import is complete, the Submission View table will reflect the CSV file entries.
