Import content

1. Prepare Your CSV File:

   • Ensure your file is properly formatted and saved in UTF-8 encoding.
   • The first row of your file should contain column headers corresponding to the entity fields you want to populate (e.g., title, body, etc.).
   • Example CSV structure for importing nodes:
     

     title,body
     Title 1,This is the body content for the first node.
     Title 2,This is the body content for the second node.
     

2. Access the Import Page:

   • Navigate to /admin/content/csv-importer in your Drupal site.

3. Select Entity Type and Bundle:

   • Choose the Entity Type (e.g., "Content") and the Bundle (e.g., "Article") you want to import the content into.

4. Set the Delimiter:

   • Specify the delimiter used in your CSV file (e.g., comma ,, semicolon ;, etc.).

5. Upload the CSV File:

   • Click "Select CSV file" and select the CSV file from your computer.

6. Start the Import:

   • Press the Import button to begin the process.

7. Verify the Import:

   • Once the import completes, navigate to the relevant content section (e.g., /admin/content) to confirm that the data has been successfully added.

Troubleshooting Tips

• UTF-8 Encoding: Use a text editor like Notepad++ or a spreadsheet tool like Excel to ensure the file is saved in UTF-8 format.
• Field Mapping: Ensure the column headers in your CSV match the field machine names in the selected entity type and bundle.
• Error Logs: If the import fails, check the Drupal logs (/admin/reports/dblog) for error details.

This approach ensures a smooth and straightforward import process for simple CSV files.
