FEATURE DESCRIPTION
Introduction
Once all the necessary settings are configured in the system, you can proceed with importing training session data. The main interface displays a list of events, along with icons indicating whether data is linked to each session.
Within such a screen, you can also recalculate the thresholds or the default metrics by selecting the cog icon.

CSV import
To begin the import process, click on the GPS section.
- Start by selecting the file to import. The system allows you to upload multiple files or sessions contained within the same file. However, it is recommended to import a maximum of 10 to 15 sessions at a time to ensure smooth processing.
- Once the files have been selected, a menu will appear displaying one or different dropdowns, which include the contents of your CSV, such as split names and drills.

- You can select or deselect specific rows before importing.
- You can link the data to an existing event.
- If you are importing a game event, click on the designated icon. Note that a game event must already exist in the system’s planning section before proceeding.
- If there are errors in the file, the system will notify you. For example, if players listed in the CSV are not found in the system, an error message will appear beside each session. You can review these issues before proceeding by clicking on the icon.

- After reviewing the data, click Next. At this stage, you will see a list of drills:
- You can associate the drills with existing ones.
- You can create new drills directly from this interface.
- You can choose not to map a drill if necessary.

- Finally, clicking Upload will complete the import process.
- A specific icon allows you to access the workload analysis for the uploaded data.
- Another icon redirects you to the events planning section.
Importing via API
If using an API, the process is slightly different:
- The provider’s name appears instead of the GPS icon.
- You simply select a date and click Search.
- The system will retrieve all sessions for that date, following the same procedure as with a CSV file.
By following these steps, you can efficiently import and manage training session data, whether using CSV files or an API integration.
