Overview

Bring your whole sphere into Grove in one go instead of adding each person by hand.

Export a file from your old system or spreadsheet, then upload it from the Imports page in Settings.

Open the import tool

1. Open Settings.

2. In the left menu, under Workspace, click Imports. The Import people page opens, with a 1. Upload card and a Select file button.

Good to know

• You can upload a CSV with a header row, an Excel .xlsx file, or a JSON or NDJSON file. For Excel, Grove reads the first worksheet and expects a header row.
• Each import takes up to 5,000 rows. If your database is bigger, split it into more than one file.
• Grove suggests a match for each column in your file. You review and adjust those matches before anything is imported.
• Saved import mappings keeps your column plans for the workspace. Matching works on your column header names, so keep your headers consistent if you import from the same source more than once.
• Import history lists your past imports with the file name, status, and any saved report.
