Create a User List From a CSV
You can make a new User List and add people to it automatically by uploading a CSV.
Simply create a CSV File containing each username or email address that you want in your User List. The file should be formatted like this:
username | |
{username1} | {email_address1} |
{username2} | {email_address2} |
{username3} | {email_address3} |
etc... |
|
The first row must contain the word "username" in the first column, and "email" in the second column.
Important The CSV file you upload must contain the correct field names, and must be encoded as comma-delimited.In subsequent columns, add either a Username, an email address, or both.
Username - If you enter a Username, it must match an existing Username already in the system. If you enter an email address, you may leave this blank.
Email - If you enter an email address, it will find any Users with that email address, and add them to the list. Entering a Username as well will cause the email address to be ignored.
Click the "Import from CSV" button in the upper-right corner
Then click "Choose CSV file" to select the file from your computer.
Once your CSV import is complete, a confirmation message will appear showing how many Users were added to your new User List.
The User List will now be in the browsable list on the left of the User List screen.
The default name of the list via CSV will be "Imported User List". Rename it and share as you see fit.
