Importing Q&A Pairs Using the Responsive Standard Template
You can import an Excel file with Q&A pairs into Responsive where the column headings represent fields in the application.

- Click and drag the file to the pop-up box, or browse to the file’s location. Click Upload from local drive or select one of your cloud storage locations.
- Map each column of the spreadsheet to the fields in Responsive. The columns in your file are displayed at the top of the page with the column letter. Click in the Column A field to see the available values in Responsive.
- Select the checkbox for the appropriate column name. For example, select Project Name for Column A. Click the Auto Detect Column Headers if you want Responsive to automatically map the columns for you.
