If you want to add more than one activity to your account at a time, you can do so using a spreadsheet import.


Add activities in bulk with new items

Note: If you’re not sure how to structure your spreadsheet, you can use our sample spreadsheets.

When you import new items (such as people, organizations, deals, or activities), Pipedrive automatically links them.

For example, if your spreadsheet includes both new contacts and activities, those activities will be linked to the contacts upon import.

To import new items, go to More (...) > Import data.

Check out the step-by-step guide to import items in this article.

Note: To add activities without linking them to other items, import a spreadsheet that contains only activity data.

Add activities in bulk for existing items

To add activities in bulk and link them to existing items, you’ll need the Pipedrive System ID function for importing.

To obtain the IDs for your existing items, use the gear icon in your list view to select the “ID” field, then click “Save.”

Once that column is visible, export the filter results to a spreadsheet:

Then add the necessary activity data into the exported spreadsheet and reimport that spreadsheet back into your Pipedrive account.

Map the activity fields accordingly, and once finished, you’ll have a new activity linked to each item you exported.
