Help centre Preparing the tournament
Importing teams from Excel, CSV or Google Forms
In the tournament's “Registrations” tab, tap “Import teams”, choose the file, check which column is which and tap “Import N teams”. They come in confirmed and with no payment.
- Open the tournament in “Tournaments” and go to the “Registrations” tab.
- Tap “Import teams” and then “Choose file”.
- Under “Which column is which”, check what TournAI suggests and change it if needed. The team name column is required.
- Look at the “Preview” (the first 8 rows are shown). Duplicates are marked and the “Skip the N duplicates (same team and category)” box is ticked.
- Tap “Import N teams”. You'll see “Done: N teams imported and confirmed.”
- Excel: an .xlsx file; the first sheet is read.
- CSV: the kind any spreadsheet can save.
- Google Forms: in the form, Responses › Download responses.
- The first row must be the headings. Up to 500 teams per import and files up to 5 MB.
Imported teams come in as “Confirmed”, with no payment and marked “Imported”. No email is sent to them. Then you add them with “Add to tournament (N)”, like the rest.
If you see “The file could not be read. Try saving it as .xlsx or .csv.”, open it in your spreadsheet program and save it again in one of those formats.
