Convert Files for Import

Currently, Import supports only comma delimited files. As an alternative your file can be converted to a comma-separated values (.CSV) file or a comma delimited text (.TXT) file, both of which are supported formats.

To convert a .TXT file to a .CSV file

  1. Open the original .TXT file in a spreadsheet software, such as Excel.

  2. Use Save As or Export functionality to save the file as a .CSV file. For specific steps in Excel, see the Microsoft Import or export text (.txt or .csv) files documentation.

To convert a tab delimited text file into a comma delimited text file

  1. Follow the steps above to convert a .TXT file to a .CSV file.

  2. Navigate to location of your file in Windows Explorer (Windows) or Finder (Mac).

  3. Right-click (Windows) or control-click (Mac) on the file and select Rename.

  4. Delete the old extension and type in the new one after the period, such as .csv to .txt.
