&lt;p&gt;&lt;span id="mce_0_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span id="mce_2_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;We d&lt;span id="mce_2_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;on&amp;#39;t have an action for this, but you can&amp;nbsp;&lt;span id="mce_3_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;use our Import / Export Tool to import&lt;span id="mce_4_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt; data from a CSV file. Take a look at &lt;span id="mce_7_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.methodintegration.com/method/kb.aspx?folder=MethodCRM&amp;amp;article=Import-%2F-Export&amp;amp;id=189"&gt;this Help Center article&lt;span id="mce_6_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span id="mce_7_end" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;span id="mce_5_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span id="mce_6_end" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span id="mce_11_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt; You could give your users&amp;nbsp;access to th&lt;span id="mce_7_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;e API and the tables they need to use through it&lt;span id="mce_6_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span id="mce_4_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span id="mce_5_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;, and&lt;span id="mce_8_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; create a screen with a grid to show the information&amp;nbsp;they&amp;#39;re importing.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;is there any action in Method that can take a file (import from users) then parse it to get the content? I have a case that users would like to import data from excel file, then put it in a grid. Is there any action that can import file and any parse function or file I/O functin? thanks.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;--&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Alex&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
