Two features are presented:

  • Export terms metadata

  • Export terms with metadata and definition: (not recommended when term definition contains images.

Import new terms

To import new terms, please make sure that all fields are separated by commas and field definition’s is enclosed in quotes.

The heading row is not mandatory for that reason please make sure that all lines respect the order below:

For example, this is a valid content:
