The bulk import feature lets you convert existing process documentation into BPMN process maps at scale. You can import from spreadsheets, CSV data, or Word documents.

Note: Bulk Import is a Labs feature. To enable it, go to Settings > Labs and opt in.

Supported formats

  • Excel files (.xlsx) — upload a spreadsheet containing process steps.
  • CSV data — paste comma-separated data directly into the text area.
  • Word documents (.docx) — upload a .docx file and BA Copilot extracts the text and analyses it to identify business processes, the same way it handles PDFs and images.

To import process maps:

  1. Click Import in the sidebar.
  2. You see the Import Process Maps page with three steps: Import, Review, Generate.
  3. Upload an Excel file, a Word document, or paste CSV data directly into the text area.
  4. Click Next to proceed to the review step.

The rest of the flow (Review → Generate) is the same regardless of the source format.
