[Import Integrations](https://help.schoolday.com/knowledge/roster-integrations?hsLang=en#import-integrations) April 6, 2025 # CSV Upload You can use CSV (comma-separated values) files to import data into your SchoolDay. When you use a CSV file, you can perform manual import of a large number of records. Your CSV files must meet [**Basic (Clever-like)**](https://help.gg4l.com/knowledge/basic-roster-clever-like?hsLang=en) or [**One Roster**](https://help.gg4l.com/knowledge/supported-data-standards-oneroster?hsLang=en) standards. When you don't want to import CSV files via the SFTP server, the alternative is a **CSV Upload** application. **Note:** CSV Upload application does not support automated data import, data can be imported only manually.  To import CSV files using **CSV Upload**: 1. Export CSV files from your SIS in one of the supported formats: [**Basic (Clever-like)**](https://help.gg4l.com/knowledge/basic-roster-clever-like?hsLang=en) or [**One Roster**](https://help.gg4l.com/knowledge/supported-data-standards-oneroster?hsLang=en)**.**  **OR**  Generate manually CSV files that meet the requirements in terms of structure and format. 2. In the Application Gallery, find and activate **CSV upload** app. ![](blob:https://gg4l.atlassian.net/61ece94d-baed-4da2-ac5a-d3994a5971ae#media-blob-url=true&id=01a10572-77c3-46f5-aaae-8a0f23b42f77&collection=contentId-179863598&contextId=179863598&height=973&width=1325&alt=)![](https://help.schoolday.com/hs-fs/hubfs/CSV%20upload-png.png?width=600&height=441&name=CSV%20upload-png.png) 3.

Choose the preferred Data Schema (Basic Roster or IMS OneRoster 1.1) in the **Delivery Config** Tab: ![](https://help.schoolday.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-May-31-2023-12-49-54-0349-PM.png?width=600&height=476&name=image-png-May-31-2023-12-49-54-0349-PM.png) 5. Click **Next** and Adjust the rest of the settings if needed. Once completed, click **Finish:** ![](https://help.schoolday.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-May-31-2023-12-55-26-4722-PM.png?width=600&height=401&name=image-png-May-31-2023-12-55-26-4722-PM.png) 6. You are now redirected to the app overview page. **Tip**: On the **Name** panel, CSV file names for the selected data schema are displayed. The obligatory ones are marked with an **\*** symbol. The data will not be uploaded unless all required files were added. ![](https://help.schoolday.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-May-31-2023-01-02-14-5067-PM.png?width=600&height=195&name=image-png-May-31-2023-01-02-14-5067-PM.png) To upload files, drag and drop your CSV file into the respective area or choose the path to the CSV files manually by clicking **Upload files**. 7. *Optional:* If you have new schools in the data set, the **Schools Mapping** dialog appears.
