Coda

Importing CSV files into Coda

Use Coda as a data repository for your Miro data. Work with separate tables for CSV file import or build a master table by appending many CSV files with a shared format. You can, for example, build a master table for all tasks in your project for an extended period of time, where you will always be able to find a particular task and go back to the original Miro board item by following the backlink.

Creating a New Coda Table from a CSV File:

  1. Open Coda, go to your Dosc folder and select the + Blank doc button

  2. Select the Insert button in the top right of the page, and then chose Import -> CSV.

  3. Click on Add file under file in the pop-up window that opens and select the CSV file you would like to import.

  4. Make sure that Use first row as headers is in the ON position.

  5. Click Next to view the imported table in Coda.

  6. Make sure that the Items column is set as the Display column in the table and that its type is set to Text. Also make sure that the Backlinks column is of type Link. The rest of the columns must be set to type Select List.
