You can add multiple sessions at a time by uploading a spreadsheet of your session information. This saves you time, as well as ensures that you have consistent information in the sessions.
You'll need to:
- Create a spreadsheet with the session information.
- Upload the spreadsheet to Wordly and verify the contents.
For more information about creating a session, see Creating a session.
To create a session spreadsheet
- From the Wordly portal, select Sessions from the left side menu.
- Click the Options men at the top right of the screen and click Upload Sessions.
- In the Upload Sessions window, choose default values that will fill the cells automatically.
- C lick Download Sample Excel and open the downloaded file.
- Fill in the spreadsheet's cells.
Don't delete the first row; it's a required header row. However, the second row is an example row. You can delete that row.

To upload the spreadsheet
- Export the spreadsheet as an Excel file. The uploaded spreadsheet must be an Excel sheet; other formats, such as .csv, won't work.
- Upload the file by clicking in the Upload Sessions window and selecting the file or dragging the file to the Upload Sessions window.
- In the Review Uploaded Sessions window, review your sessions for accuracy. If any required field is blank, or if information is not formatted correctly, the incorrect fields will be highlighted in red. You should fix or remove incorrect fields; otherwise the Submit button remains disabled.
- Click Submit.
