Instructions

Using Google Sheets for Bulk Upload

Instead of downloading a CSV file, you can use the provided Google Sheets template for bulk uploading certificates. Follow these steps:

1. Make a Copy of the Google Sheets Template

2. Do Not Modify Headers in the Second Row

  • First Row: Contains the Security Code (Security Code) and must remain unchanged.
  • Second Row: Contains headers: Full Name, Course, Hours, Date. Do not alter these headers or their order.

3. Enter Data Starting from the Third Row

  • Column A: Leave empty.
  • Column B: Enter the full name (Full Name).
  • Column C: Enter the course name (Course).
  • Column D: Enter the number of hours (integer greater than 0) (Hours).
  • Column E: Enter the date in DD/MM/YYYY format, e.g., 15/11/2024.

4. Ensure Date Format is Correct

  • Dates must be in DD/MM/YYYY format.
    • Correct Example: 01/01/2025
    • Incorrect Example: 2025-01-01

5. Add All Required Data

  • Add as many rows as needed following the same structure.

6. Save the File as CSV from Google Sheets

  • After entering all data, download the file:
    • Click on File > Download > Comma-separated values (.csv, current sheet).
    • Google Sheets will automatically save the file in CSV format with UTF-8 encoding.

7. Upload the CSV File to the Plugin

  • Go back to the Bulk Upload page in the plugin.
  • Choose the CSV file you just downloaded from Google Sheets.
  • Click the “Upload CSV” button to add the certificates.

Handling Errors

  • Do Not Modify Headers: Ensure the headers in the second row are unchanged.
  • Date Format: Ensure all dates are in DD/MM/YYYY format.
  • Required Fields: Do not leave required fields empty.
