Importing Data From CSV

Our iOS app supports importing data through CSV files. Here's how to do that.

CSV files imports are only supported on our iOS app currently. We have created an example file for you to use to help make sure your file is properly formatted for import. Here are the requirements of the import to be successful

  • The date and text are required headers for the CSV import. The others you see in the example file are not required.
  • Dates must be in ISO 8601 format
  • The file needs to have the .csv file extension like myJournalImport.csv
  • The file will need to be stored on local storage on iOS in the Files app.

For other import options please check out our full guide to data imports in Day One.
