Do you have profiles data in another system? Have you acquired some regional data? Perhaps someone hosted a community event and provided you a list of attendees that are not in CommunitySuite. You can import a spreadsheet of profiles vs. creating the profiles one at a time.
It is best practice to test and verify the import in Sandbox before loading to your Live site.
- Navigate to the Profiles page and click Import in the left-side menu.
- Click [Download Template].
- The template will download as a .csv file.
- The template will download as a .csv file.
- Open the template, enter the profile information for each profile you want to import, and then save the template to your computer.
- Instructions for how to fill out your template are available on the import page in CommunitySuite.
- The file must be saved as .csv format.
- Click Choose File.
- Select the .csv file from your computer.
- Click Process.
Processing a file will create a background job. To view the status of the import, click your username in the upper right hand corner, then click My Jobs on the left-side menu.
