Schedule Import Instructions

You can manually upload student data via one-time flat file sharing or set up an automated import using SFTP. 

1. Navigate to Config > Imports
2. Click on the Settings button in the upper right corner. Then select New Import in the upper right corner of the next page.  

On the Import Settings page, make the following selections for a District-level import: 

• Select Group Level or School Level (depending on if the import is for the entire organization/district or for one school)
• Choose your district from the next dropdown. (The system will display a blue "Account Found" button if the SFTP setup in the previous steps was completed. If the system does not display "Account Found" please return to the beginning of these steps.) Choose your school, if doing a School Level import. 
• Select Schedule Import
• Select One Time if importing a one-time flat file or Daily if setting up automatic student imports via SFTP. IF SFTP, choose the Start Date (usually the current day).
• Enter the email address of the user doing the import.
• Save Settings 

7. On the right side of the Import Settings page, select the relevant boxes:

• Has Header - Check this if the import file has a header row
• Notify On Success - Generally recommend leaving unchecked
• Enable PGP Encryption - Generally recommend leaving unchecked
• Remove Missing Records - Generally recommend leaving unchecked

8. Determine if the upload should allow for any errors. This can be useful for large files with some broken data that cannot be easily cleaned. 

9. Select the file for upload or type in the file name for SFTP. Then click the Queue Import button if importing via SFTP. 

If importing via SFTP, type the name of the student file in File Name exactly as it is on the SFTP (i.e. students.csv). Important: The import file name CANNOT contain spaces. For example, the file name "School import list.csv" will NOT import whereas, "Schoolimportlist.csv" will import.

10. Complete Mapping. Save Mapping. 

11. Click Queue Import.
