Why Batch Import Matters

For many language learners, transitioning between different learning platforms or methods can be a daunting task. You've spent countless hours curating lists of words, phrases, and their definitions. The thought of manually re-entering all this data into a new system can be overwhelming. That's where Polidict's batch import feature comes to the rescue.

How Batch Import Works

Polidict's batch import feature is designed with flexibility and user-friendliness in mind. Here's what you need to know:

1. File Format: Import your learning materials from CSV (Comma-Separated Values) files. You can easily create these using popular spreadsheet applications like Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, or Apple Numbers.

2. Customizable Separators: Whether your file uses commas, tabs, or semicolons as separators, Polidict has you covered. You can specify the delimiter that matches your file format.

3. Flexible Column Mapping: Polidict allows you to map columns in your CSV file to specific fields in the system. Supported fields include:

• Learning item (the word or phrase you're learning)
• Definition
• Translation
• Learning item comment
• Definition comment

4. Header Row Option: If your CSV file includes a header row, you can easily specify this during the import process.

5. Custom Grouping: Organize your imported items by assigning them to a custom group of your choice.

6. Preview and Selective Import: Before finalizing the import, you can preview the results. This allows you to ensure everything is correctly mapped and formatted. You have the option to import all items or select specific ones.
