Hello,

I need to import about 1000 users (one time) to an existing membership site and subscribe them to an existing plan.

Currently, inputting the info manually through CB works great as they get a welcome email with username and password, though doing a thousand users manually is quite a bit.

I would like to batch import these members (I'll do plenty of testing first) so that the import will subscribe them and send out the welcome email with password. Is this possible?

Is the email that goes out after creating a member in CB back end different if the user is subscribed to a plan or not? I'm asking this, thinking that if it is not possible to subscribe to a plan in the CSV import process, I could modify it temporarily to indicate subscription, and then run a query to subscribe them?

If I run a separate query to subscribe these new members (I don't see batch tools to mass subscribe to a plan), what would that look like? Maybe a CB Auto Action, even if it's temporarily enabled?

Any help is appreciated.

Thank you,
Tomás

Thank you Kyle,

The CBSubs import seems straight forward enough, thanks for that.

I'm still a bit sketchy on the user import side. On another post you mentioned:

Don't import a password and it'll generate one automatically when they're imported. This works similar to use auto generated passwords feature. Imports in CB > User Management go through normal user creation processes (same process as creating a user manually in backend) so it will send welcome/pending email as needed.

My doubts are about the email sent out. In my settings, users are approved automatically, but there is a plan requirement. Will the email be sent out with a welcome even if there isn't a plan attached yet? Or will it be a pending one?
My plan is to prepare both import files after testing and do the CBSubs right after the user, so those getting the emails will be able to login right away without much delay.

Also could you please confirm if this is the language key for the email going out: "YOUR_REGISTRATION_IS_APPROVED_MESSAGE"

Thank you,
Tomás
