How to Map Data Fields During Import in Attio: Step-by-Step Guide

Start by navigating to the specific Collection where you want your data to live. Once there, look for the "Import / Export" option—this is your gateway to bringing data into Attio.

Next, choose "Import CSV" from the menu. This option lets you begin the process of adding your CSV data into the Collection seamlessly.

Click on "Choose a CSV file" to open your device’s file picker. Select the CSV file you wish to upload—it contains the data you want to integrate with Attio.

After your CSV file has been successfully uploaded, press "Next" to move forward. This will take you to the next step where you’ll organize how your data is imported.

Now it’s time for the crucial field mapping step. Each column in your CSV must be linked to a corresponding property in Attio so your data imports correctly and stays organized.

Attio makes this easier by automatically suggesting matches for common fields like name, email, or job title. Take a moment to verify these matches and make any necessary tweaks.

If you come across columns in your CSV that don’t correspond to any existing property, simply use the ‘Select Attribute’ option. Search for or create a new attribute that fits your data perfectly.

Once all your CSV fields have been matched, take the time to review the summary carefully. This ensures everything aligns correctly before continuing. When you’re confident, click Continue to proceed.

Now you’re ready to begin importing your data. Look for the "Start import" button and select it to launch the upload process.

To confirm your decision and ensure your data starts coming into Attio, click on "Start import" once more. This final step initiates the full import.

And just like that, your Supademo instance is created in moments! You can now begin working with your imported data seamlessly within Attio.
