Import recipes from CSV

Add many recipes at once from a spreadsheet. Group Admins and Outlet Admins can do this. Add your ingredients first, since every recipe line must use one that already exists.

Import your file

  1. Open Recipes and click Import CSV.
  2. Click Download sample CSV. It shows the headers and an example recipe using your real ingredients.
  3. Add one row per ingredient in each recipe.
  4. Upload the file, check the preview, then click Import.
