  • 1.  Unable to import new participants

    Hello CVENT,

    I have unsuccessfully imported new participants.  I downloaded and used the preferred template, and still cannot import.  Can you help?

    Thanks,

    Tom

    Hi Tom, 

    I ran into this as well and learned the participants must first be included on an Invitation list - are you using a Cvent Confirmation # or invitation/Cvent ID. The steps I took were:

    1) Import contacts to an Invitation List

    2) Export  invitation List to get the Cvent ID

    3) Reformat Export to match the Participants template. 

    I had to open a help ticket to get the following steps as it was not clear in the instructions. We were adding back log of events that took place before our cvent usage.
