How to use:

  • To import widgets, press the import button and add a CSV or JSON file to the file upload field. Then press the confirm button.

  • It is recommended to export at least one pre-existing widget to CSV to ensure the correct format of the CSV file.

Import Behavior:

  • When importing, the system checks whether a widget already exists given the widget name. If no match is found, it then checks by ID. If a match is found, the existing widget is modified, otherwise a new widget is created.
