You may want to automatically load your own data, either from your own CSV file or from a third-party service. You can do this on a single occasion, or choose to import animal data on a continual basis. For example, some organizations use a third-party service to enter their animal data and then upload that data to RescueGroups.org using our automatic import option, so that we can help share their animal data with all of our listing sites.
You can read through this article to learn how to setup an automatic import of animal data into your RescueGroups.org account. RescueGroups.org will automatically process your imported data if it is formatted appropriately and has valid data.

Please know that if you choose to use our Import Account feature to import data automatically from any third party system, this action will NOT affect any pre-existing animal record that is currently listed in your RescueGroups.org account. An Import Account can only add, or edit animal records that have previously been added by that specific Import Account. If you plan to only have your Import Account load animals to your RescueGroups.org account, we would recommend that you delete pre-existing animal records in your RescueGroups.org account, prior to loading your first import file. This will help to ensure your animal records are accurate and avoid duplicate or outdated animal records. |
