Import Users & Vendors into your Project Level Directory Tool (Procore Imports)

Objective 

To import user and vendor contacts into your Project Directory with Procore Imports.

Background 

Procore's Project level Directory tool stores all of your project-specific contact information. Contacts can be employees, project team members, or other business entities, such as subcontractors or vendors. A user assigned 'Admin' level permissions to this tool can add a contact strictly so their information is available for use in Procore or they can invite contacts to join Procore and log into the system. 

Things to Consider 

  • Required User Permission: 
    • 'Admin' level permissions on the Company's Directory tool.
      Note: Granular Permissions are not supported in the Procore Imports application.
  • Additional Information:
    • This feature is only available to computers running Windows 7 or newer. See Install Procore Imports.
    • Imported contacts cannot be deleted so please carefully review your contacts before importing them into Procore.
    • When importing contacts, you'll have the option to either import new 'users' or new 'vendors,' which are defined as the following:
      • User: In Procore, a "user" is an individual person who will be logging into Procore, such as your employee or an employee of another company who will be accessing your project.
      • Vendor: In Procore, a "vendor" is another company or entity that members of your company interact with during a project.
    • Important! If you are wanting to add both new users and new companies to associate them with, it is recommended to import users first to create the association with their company. Once you have imported your users, then click the Add or Update Existing Vendors button to Download for Modification the partially completed vendor template file. Fill in the rest of the companies information and then import the file to complete the process.
