2. Click Import File on the top right.

3. In the Import dialog, click Choose File, select the .csv file you prepared, and then click Import File.

Note

Ensure that your .csv file is saved in the Unicode (UTF-8) encoding. Otherwise, the content of the file may be rendered improperly.

5. Prepare data for import: Based on the downloaded file, create your bulk information in the .csv format. Once your file is ready, click Choose File, select the prepared comma-separated values (.csv) file, and click Import File.

6. Validate import results: Click Validate to check your import results. If there are any Records with errors, fix them in the .csv file before starting the import.
