Bulk Upload

Overview

Bulk upload imports CSV data into ServiceFlow with column mapping—customers, inventory, price book, and other supported entities depending on your enabled import types.

How to access

Settings → Bulk Upload (/settings/bulk-upload)
Visible when Bulk Upload integration is enabled under Settings → Integrations.

What you can do today

  • Enable integration under Integrations → Bulk Upload.
  • Upload CSV files per import type exposed in UI.
  • Map CSV columns to ServiceFlow fields.
  • Preview and validate rows before commit.
  • Review import results and error rows.

Prerequisites

  • Admin access.
  • Bulk Upload enabled: settings.integrations['bulk-upload'].isEnabled === true.
  • Clean CSV with headers; UTF-8 encoding recommended.
  • Backup or test on staging before large production imports.

Step-by-step

Enable bulk upload (admin)

  1. Settings → Integrations → Bulk Upload.
  2. Enable → Save.
  3. Confirm Settings → Bulk Upload appears in settings menu.

Import a file

  1. Settings → Bulk Upload.
  2. Choose import type (e.g. customers, price book—per available options).
  3. Upload CSV.
  4. Map columns → validate preview.
  5. Run import → download error report if any rows fail.

After import

  1. Spot-check records in target module (Customers, Price Book, etc.).
  2. Use Import Archive if merging legacy system exports.

Current limitations

  • Config-gated — menu hidden until integration enabled.
  • Not all entities support bulk upload—check in-app type list.
  • Updates vs inserts rules vary by import type—duplicate matching may be imperfect.
  • No real-time sync from external systems—one-time batch imports.

Roadmap

  • Scheduled SFTP import jobs.
  • Duplicate merge wizard post-import.
  • Import templates downloadable per entity.
