What format should the file be in?
The file should be in Excel (.xls) or CSV (.csv) file format. If you have Excel 2007 then please save the file as a .xls file i.e. Excel 2003 or earlier format. All Spreadsheet Application Softwares have the option for saving files as .csv files. Your data in the file should confirm with any of the format option as below:
License Level: Web Professional| Column 1 | Column 2 | Column 3 |
| First Name | Last Name |
| Column 1 | Column 2 | Column 3 | Column 4 | Column 5 | Column 6 | Column 7 | Column 8 | Column 9 | Column n |
| Field1 | Field2 | Field3 | Field4 | Field5 | |||||
| First Name | Last Name | Field1 | Field2 | Field3 | Field4 | Field5 | |||
| First Name | Last Name | Password | Field1 | Field2 | Field3 | Field4 | Field5 | ||

Compliance format for the email address file:
There should not be any Spaces in the email address field
The email address should be in plain English. The FIRST / LAST NAME variables and Custom Variables support multi-lingual characters.
There should not be any Commas within the CSV / Excel(.xls) file
I am trying to upload multilingual variables but they don't get uploaded properly.
When uploading multilingual variables make sure you use an Excel file. A .csv file doesn't support multilingual characters.
To track e-mail addresses / Custom Variables please use the Respondent Tracking link when sending emails via SurveyAnalytics Email Management.
