Data

The Data experience makes porting large amounts of tabulated data into your site easy. Based on Excel style tables you can format, organise and prepare your data before syncing it into your site.

In our example, Stationary Inc have several leads generated from their marketing campaign they wish to bring into the site so the team can stay organised.

Item IDs​
