Data Portability & Bulk Operations
Own your data. Import thousands of records in bulk, export in any format, and migrate from legacy systems with field mapping, validation, and zero lock-in.
Move Data With Confidence
Bulk Data Import
Upload CSV, Excel, or JSON files containing thousands of records. A guided field mapping interface ensures every column lands in the right place.
Flexible Export Formats
Export any dataset to CSV, Excel, or JSON on demand or on a schedule. Every field, every record — in a format you can use anywhere.
Bulk Record Operations
Update, reassign, tag, archive, or delete thousands of records in one action. Filter to the exact set you need, apply the change, move on.
Field Mapping & Validation
Map incoming columns to platform fields, apply transformation rules, and run validation before committing. See exactly which rows will succeed — and fix the rest before they fail.
User-Configurable Views
Build custom list views with the filters, sort orders, and column sets relevant to each team. Save and share views so every role sees exactly what they need.
Import History & Error Logs
Every import and export job is logged with success counts, skipped rows, and specific error details. Diagnose issues and re-upload corrections without affecting already-processed records.
Import in Four Steps
Prepare Your File
Export data from your existing system as CSV or Excel. Download our column template to see the expected field structure — or upload your file as-is and map columns manually.
Map & Validate
Match each column in your file to the corresponding platform field. Set transformation rules for date formats, lookups, and default values. Run validation to see which rows will succeed before any data is written.
Process in Bulk
Submit the import job. Large files process in the background without impacting your live system. You receive a notification when the job completes — no need to wait at the screen.
Review & Correct
Check the import summary — records created, updated, skipped. Download the error report for any failed rows, fix the issues, and re-upload only the corrections. Already-imported records are not affected.
