Importing Member Data

Importing Existing Member Data

Intros offers multiple ways to import your organization’s existing member data. Whether you have all the data you’ll need to get your members connecting, partial information on members, or simply a list of emails, this page will provide the information you need to import your members.

Import your members through one of the below options:

A. Connect your data using Zapier

Zapier is our recommended method, as any data source compatible with Zapier can be used (AirTable, Typeform, Google Sheets, Hubspot, etc. - check out all Zapier apps here).

Head to our Zapier page for more examples on how you can connect your data with Zapier (ie: updating existing member data)

Note: import limitation

Both methods of importing data are not compatible with our “Similarity Scale” type question, so avoid adding this question type to your Intros club if you plan on integrating with Zapier OR uploading data using a CSV

It is also important to note that members will sign into their member profile via magic link sign-in using their email. With that, make sure to upload an email members will want to utilize for Intros matching.

Sign up for Zapier

Head to Zapier.com & choose the plan that best fits your organization

Create your Zap

Add a new Zap named “[organization]’s Intros connection” (or whatever’s best for you, of course!)

Add your data trigger

In this example, I use a Typeform connection. In Zapier, simply search for the name of your app in the “trigger” block. Connect your Typeform account, and select “New Entry” so that the flow runs each time a new Typeform submission is sent in

Add your data action (Intros)

Connect your Intros AI account to Zapier, and select “create new member”

image

Match each question from Typeform to its corresponding Intros AI matchmaking form question

Test & Publish your Zap

Upon a successful test, you will see a sample member appear in your Intros club (this member is only temporary, and used to make sure you’ve properly connected your data)

Once your data is properly flowing, select “Publish Zap. You will then see the option to transfer any existing data, which is the perfect way to seamlessly transfer any members who have already filled out the Typeform

B. Upload your data using our CSV Upload Feature

With a few simple steps, you can upload any existing member data to your Club.

Note: import limitation

Both methods of importing data are not compatible with our “Similarity Scale” type question, so avoid adding this question type to your Intros club if you plan on integrating with Zapier OR uploading data using a CSV

It is also important to note that members will sign into their member profile via magic link sign-in using their email. With that, make sure to upload an email members will want to utilize for Intros matching.
