How to transfer submission into a form.

    Asked on February 25, 2016 at 6:08 PM

    If I clone a certain registration page from my site and form another registration page with it, how can I transfer all the submissions over to the cloned page?

     

    Please advise

     

    Thank you

    If you have the submissions in CSV or Excel format, you can use the Import Data app: https://apps.jotform.com/app/import_data

    Please note that the csv file should be identical with the template format being shown by the import app. 

    Example (This is just a demo for a sample form, your forms will have different csv template): 

    Current import app template that you need to replicate in the csv.

    14564798592016 02 26 1740 Screenshot 10

    Current csv file downloaded from the original form.

    14564799092016 02 26 1744 Screenshot 21

    Now we need to edit the csv file so that it looks the same as template format shown in the app.

    14564800032016 02 26 1736 Screenshot 43

    Do the same to the rest of the fields until everything is the same.

    Template:

    14564803552016 02 26 1752 Screenshot 54

    CSV File:

    14564803312016 02 26 1751 Screenshot 65

    Now once everything is the same, save the CSV. Then click the Change button to upload the CSV file to the app. Click Import afterwards to complete the Import of the submissions.

    14564805512016 02 26 1753 Screenshot 76

    The import should now be successful and no error will appear when you use the import app.
