Upload Images into ContentWelder

The Upload Image Import option allows Administrators and authorized users to upload multiple images to the system from the dashboard. A zip file containing the images files and a spreadsheet containing details of each image is required to use this feature.

Create Upload Package

The upload package is a zip file that contains an upload spreadsheet and the images that will be uploaded to the system.

Image Spreadsheet

A spreadsheet with fields shown in the table below must be created and populated with data for each image that will be uploaded. Refer to the table below for the fields and description in the spreadsheet. A sample of the image upload spreadsheet can be downloaded by clicking this link: SampleImageImport.xlsx

Add Images and Spreadsheet to Zip Package

Once the image spreadsheet has been created, combine images that will be uploaded and the image spreadsheet into a zip file. A specific file name is not required for the zip file.
