How to bulk upload via CSV
CSV files can have up to 3 columns (without headers). The first column is required, the second and third columns are optional:
REQUIRED The First column contains the message of your post and any link(s).
OPTIONAL The Second column contains the URL of the image you want in your post. If you want to create a post without an image, you can leave this column empty.
Note that this is where you put your image URL. If you want a link in your post, that goes in the First column.
OPTIONAL The Third column lets you set the date and time of each post.
The format should be: MM/DD/YYYY HH:mm
For Example: 12/25/2022 13:05
Note: If the third column is left blank, you can select the date and time of each post after the posts have been uploaded.
