How do I add bulk import users?

This article will walk you through how to bulk import users into your organization using a comma delimited file (CSV). This will allow you to generate a list of users and import them at once instead of having to add each of them individually. CSV files can be generated by hand or from a spreadsheet application, such as Microsoft Excel. The CSV file must follow the format of LastName,FirstName,Email,AutoDeleteOn.The table below outlines each of the columns.

ColumnRequiredDescription
LastNameYesLast name of the user.
FirstNameYesFirst name of the user.
EmailYesEmail address of the user. Must be unique throughout the application.
AutoDeleteOnNoIf this is a temporary user, you can use this field to set a date when the user will be automatically deleted.
Here is an example CSV file for importing 4 users. The third user will be automatcially deleted on June 20, 2024.
