The first cell in the first row must be called "Term" and the second cell in the first row must be called "Definition".
All subsequent rows will contain the actual terms and definitions you wish to import.
5. When your CSV file is ready, click Choose file and locate it on your computer.
6. Click Import Terms.
7. You will be asked to confirm the terms and definitions. Make any relevant changes here then click on Import Selected Terms. The terms will now be populated in the Glossary.
Note: by importing terms using a CSV you will not be able to link the term to a content item, to do this you can edit the item and link it to a content item there.
