Bulk Import

Create many posts at once by uploading a CSV file. Perfect for migrating content or batch-creating posts from spreadsheets.

Overview

Navigate to Bulk Import from the main menu.

Step-by-Step Process

Step 1: Download Template

1. Click Download Template
2. A CSV file downloads with the correct column headers
3. Open in Excel, Google Sheets, or any spreadsheet app

Step 2: Fill in Your Content

The template includes these columns:

Column	Required	Description
content	Yes	The post text/caption
platform	Yes	Target platform (facebook, instagram, twitter, linkedin)
scheduledDate	No	ISO date for scheduling (e.g., 2024-01-15T09:00:00Z)
mediaUrl	No	URL to an image or video
campaignId	No	Link to an existing campaign

IMPORTANT

Keep the header row intact. Data starts on row 2.

Step 3: Upload CSV

1. Click Choose CSV File or drag your file onto the upload area
2. The system shows a preview of your data
3. Review the first 10 rows to verify formatting

Step 4: Import

1. Click Import Posts
2. Wait for processing (may take a moment for large files)
3. View the results summary

Results Summary

After import, you'll see:

• Total Rows: Number of rows processed
• Successful: Posts created successfully
• Failed: Rows that couldn't be imported

Handling Errors

If some rows fail:

• Error messages show which row failed and why
• Common issues: missing required fields, invalid platform names, malformed dates
• Fix errors in your spreadsheet and re-import just the failed rows

Tips for Success

1. Test with a small batch first — Import 5-10 posts to verify format
2. Use consistent date formats — ISO 8601 recommended
3. Check platform names — Must match exactly: facebook, instagram, twitter, linkedin
4. Leave optional fields empty — Don't put placeholder text
5. Save as CSV UTF-8 — Ensures special characters import correctly

Limitations

• Maximum 500 rows per import
• Media URLs must be publicly accessible
• Scheduled dates must be in the future
