How to Import Data into Spekit
Spekit allows you to import data by uploading a populated Excel (.xlsx) file, which can include text, images, videos, files, and links. This process will override any existing data, so it's crucial to prepare your file carefully. The import and export functionalities are accessible in the Settings tab of the Spekit Web App. ONLY Account Admins can import data into Spekit.
Here are some important things to note before you choose to upload data:
-
Selective Overriding: Delete any rows in your Excel file that you do not wish to override in Spekit.
-
Non-Reversible Process: Once uploaded, the data override cannot be undone. Ensure accuracy before proceeding.
-
SCORM Files: Currently, Spekit does not support the import of SCORM files
Steps to Import Data:
1.) Open the Spekit Web App.
2.) Navigate to Settings.
3.) Within Settings, click Admin Tools.
4.) Click Bulk Upload.
5.) Click Download XLSX File to obtain the template.
6.) Enter your password when prompted to authorize the download.
7.) Click Download XLXS File. The file will be downloaded in .xls format.
8.) Fill in the downloaded .xlsx file with the content you wish to import.
9.) Click Upload XLSX and override, select your prepared file, and confirm by typing OVERRIDE when prompted.
Additional Tips for Creating or Copying Speks:
-
Remove IDs: Ensure all IDs are removed from the ID column to prevent conflicts.
-
Expert Information: Clear data from the Expert First Name, Last Name, and ID columns if not applicable.
-
Salesforce Metadata: Note that Salesforce-specific metadata (read-only information on fields) cannot be updated via import.
-
HTML Formatting: Speks are written in HTML. Refer to existing Speks for formatting examples.

How to print to PDF

1.) Open the Spekit Web App.
2.) Open the specific Topic containing the Speks you wish to print.
3.) Choose the specific Speks you want to include in the PDF by checking their corresponding boxes. To select all Speks within the Topic, click the Select All button.
NOTE: Ensure that no Files are selected, as their inclusion can prevent the print function from working correctly.

5.) You can choose to Print summary sections only or Print everything, depending on your preference.
6.) After making your selection, you'll be redirected to a new page displaying the PDF version of the selected Speks.
7.) Save or Print the PDF:
- On this page, copen your browser's menu (often represented by three vertical dots) and select the Print option, or simply press Ctrl+P on your keyboard.
- In the print dialog, you can choose to save the document as a PDF to your computer or send it directly to a printer.
NOTE: The Print to PDF function is designed to work exclusively with Speks. Including Files in your selection may disable the print option. To ensure a smooth printing process, verify that only Speks are selected before proceeding.
