CSV Import
The CSV import allows you to import data into all fields of all subtypes. To do this, navigate to the object overview for the desired subtype via the dashboard or the menu, and open the CSV import by clicking the CSV Import button:
Links to other objects are not imported. Additionally, during a CSV import, all objects are imported anew; objects that were previously imported are not updated.
For a recurring or bidirectional import, please always use the REST API.
Download CSV sample file
Before importing, you can download a CSV file for each subtype that contains sample data for all fields:
The downloaded sample file contains the following data:
| Field type | Content | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Text | Sample text | |
| Integer | 42 | |
| Date | 2026-07-13 | Export date according to ISO 8601 |
| Date & Time | 2026-07-13T16:24:25 | Date and time of export according to ISO 8601 |
| Checkbox | 0 or 1 | Boolean |
| External Link | https://verinice.com | |
| Single Select | All possible values | One value per line |
| Multi Select | All possible values | All values separated by & on each line |
Import data
Select the CSV file you want to import by dragging and dropping it or by clicking the Select Files button. After selecting the encoding, the Import Objects dialog that opens will display all entries in the CSV file along with all existing columns:
Check whether the suggested Object Type and Subtype are selected correctly, and specify the Status for the objects to be imported.
For each column in the CSV file, specify whether the column should be imported and, if so, into which target attribute the values should be imported:
INFO
The Abbreviation and Name fields are required for import and must be assigned.
You can edit the displayed data before importing to make final corrections:
Start the import using the Import button. A message will then inform you whether the import was successful or if any errors occurred.
The imported objects can now be used in verinice:
