# Excel Import Guide: Users
## The Excel import functionality can be used to quickly and seamlessly upload a large number of users to RocketDocs.
Navigate to Administration, User Management, then Users, on the left side panel.
Click the Export button and select csv.
Delete all rows except the header (though you may want to leave one row until the right before import to be able to see acceptable formats for each column).
Do not add, remove, reorder, or rename columns.
Fill in file with your information prior to performing the import, following the specific field instructions below.
Please note that, if a user with the same email address exists in the database, or in the file, you will receive an error for the duplicate line.
Click Import button (next to Export button, in screen shot above). Select the updated csv file.
You will receive an email with any import errors or letting you know that the file was imported successfully.
