Ability for App users to import data into tables
Ability to create a datapage for App users to import data into tables without using a scheduled task or having to log into caspio. App users can add data manually; why not have the ability for admin level users to import directly into the tables?

 commentedIMHO, this is THE one key user-facing feature missing from the Caspio platform.

 commentedI agree about the critical importance of this feature! Asking clients to manually key in hundreds or thousands of data fields that already exist electronically is an embarrassment in 2025! If this has already been included in an update that I missed, please accept my apology and I would be most grateful if someone could point me to it. OTHERWISE, PLEASE PRIORITIZE THIS FOR DEVELOPMENT !!!

 commentedWe are building applications for clients that will replace other databases. It would be great for their end users to be able to import data using a specified format. I don't want to expect the client to do the imports.

      Brais Oliveira commented I think this is a very important idea to develop in order to improve the user experience. Many of them would like to be able to import them from their department without relying on us to do the uploads.

 commentedThere is no yet reply from CASPIO even if there are 182 votes here and 78 (total 260...) in a similar idea 
 Are quite 10 years that someone started asking this....

 commentedI don't think Caspio really uses the ideabox. They might come here to get ideas themselves, but I guarantee they do not care about what the community wants the most. If it can make them more money, I'm sure they'd be all over it.

 commentedIt's been years since this was added here. When is Caspio looking to implement this Import feature? 
- 
      Romeo Sandoval commented Importing data is a usual feature of a software program tool. It should have included already in Caspio even on first release of this software.

 commentedIts been awhile since this was first brought up. I believe Caspio may have reasons to not consider this feature. Nevertheless, this dev tool is a wonderful engine, please Caspio, reconsider to help us evolve our work. Mark Mayhrai

 commentedI have a SaaS model app which incorporates record level security based on additional unique identifiers for different 'user' accounts... Would be great if Caspio also enabled RLS-based users to upload data to tables from csv / excel (perhaps with each users unique identifier pre-filled for uploads).

 commentedCan someone from Caspio take a quick moment to comment on this prospective feature? Is it a limitation from Caspio's side (i.e. is it problematic to implement)? Is it something Caspio assumes can be done with third-party integration? Looking around the internet, it seems this is a highly saught after feature for low-code environments.
