Import categories

All-or-nothing: a bad row rolls back the whole file, and the error names the row. Fix and upload again.

Format

The first row is headers, matched by name (case and spaces forgiven), so column order doesn't matter and extra columns are ignored. The easiest starting point is the CSV export of this list — exports round-trip straight back into imports.

Columns: code, name, description, parent_code, default_part_type. Parents are referenced by code and must precede their children in the file (or already exist).

Imports create new records only; re-uploading a file whose rows already exist reports a duplicate. Updating via import is a later feature.
