Before you start
- A TalkValue workspace with an active Pro trial. See Plans and trial.
- A CSV of contacts with at least an email column (UTF-8, headers in the first row)
- 10 megabytes or less of file size
Open Path and start an import
Sign in at app.trytalkvalue.com, open Path from the left rail, and click Import Data from the side panel (or from the empty-state CTA on the Path overview). The import wizard opens with three steps: Upload, Configure, Review.
Upload your CSV
Drop your CSV onto the upload area, or click Select file to browse. If you don’t have a CSV, click Download sample template to get one. It contains the headers TalkValue recognizes automatically. TalkValue analyzes the file and shows the detected columns, total rows, and file size. Click Continue.
Pick a target and confirm the mapping
Choose where the contacts go. A Channel (a reusable source like
Newsletter or LinkedIn) or an Event (a one-time gathering with a date). Pick from the list, or create a new one inline.TalkValue auto-detects headers like email, first_name, and company. Review the Map Fields table and drag any unmapped column to the right TalkValue field. Email is required. Click Continue.Review and start the import
Confirm the row count, target, and field mapping on the review screen, then click Start Import. Progress streams live as the import runs. When it completes, head to People in the Path side panel to see the new contacts. Full reference: Import a CSV.
Open Analytics and read your first chart
Click Registration Trend under Analytics in the Path side panel. Each bar shows registrations per event, split into Net new (first-time contacts) and Returning (people who registered before). Read the Registration trend page for the chart anatomy and what each segment tells you about your audience.
