CSV Upload

Import Organization, Account, User, and NPS data via CSV Upload

Importing data via CSV file

If you have data that you're not able to import through the use of our integrations or Vitally's APIs, you can use the CSV Upload tool found in the Integrations Catalog.

What can I import via CSV?

  • Organizations and organization traits
  • Accounts and account traits
  • Users and user traits
  • NPS responses
If you have any other types of data that you would like our help importing into your Vitally account, please reach out to our support team via the in-app chat and we'd be happy to evaluate your request.
