Important Notes on CSV Uploads

    • If these titles are absent, open your file and ensure to add these column titles if they're not already there.
  • Tags cannot be created during the CSV import process. Ensure all tags you want to use already exist in your guest list before or after uploading.

  • Parties can only be made after the CSV has been uploaded.
