Import a guest list cleanly, with the right structure from the start.
The CSV import flow is the fastest way to move a real guest list into an event. Use the right template once, keep the columns exact, and the platform does the rest.
Required structure
Keep the template simple and the import will stay reliable.
The import expects one guest per row and the exact field names used by the platform. This is not the place for custom columns or spreadsheet formatting experiments.
Required columns
Step by step
Follow the import flow exactly once, then repeat it with confidence.
Step 1
Download the guest import template from an event page.
Step 2
Fill the columns exactly as name, seat_number, and tag.
Step 3
Remove blank rows before saving the file as CSV.
Step 4
Import the file, review the preview, then confirm the bulk upload.
Avoid these
Most CSV failures come from formatting changes, not from the import tool itself.
Changing the column names or order from the provided template.
Leaving blank rows inside the sheet before exporting the CSV file.
Saving as spreadsheet formats like XLSX instead of standard CSV.
Using different field names such as seat or category instead of seat_number and tag.
Next step
Download the template and move your real guest list into the platform.
Once the CSV is clean, the rest of the guest flow gets much easier: invitations, sharing, and check-in all build on the same import.
