Overview
With the event import tool, you can upload external event and registrant/attendee records into your MC Professional database. Use this tool to bring in old event data, stored outside of your MC Professional database, or to bring in event data from third party event management systems.
At this time, the event import tool only brings in information from events that were not created as part of an MC Professional form. You cannot use this feature to update registrant information for events that already exist in your MC Professional database.
To upload a .csv file
1. Navigate to Database > Profile Imports > Event Import.
2. In your file, at least one column must include either the Username or Member Number attribute. This serves as the unique identifier to tie the event registration information in your spreadsheet to your member profiles. Click Download Event Import Template to ensure your spreadsheet is set up correctly.
The event import will only update profiles that already exist in your MC Professional database, and will not create new users. To add new users, use the profile import tool.
3. When you're ready to upload your file, click Upload A CSV File.
Then, click Import Uploaded Events and Registrants when you're ready to begin the import.
4. Next, under Report Details, you can track which which events and registrants were added successfully, and if any any errors occurred during the import.
If you don't see anything at first, refresh the page to track the import's progress.
To access your imported data
Once your import is complete, you can view the event attendance by doing a search on events through the Profile List advanced search. Additionally, you can view the records on the member profile by clicking the View Event Attendance.
