SYNC-View: Competency

When importing data to Silverbucket it is vital to keep the structure identical to the example datasheet to ensure a flawless import:

- First row contains the names of the headers - it is not necessary to edit the first row.
- Second row in your file is where your data starts to get imported
- Columns need to be in the same exact order as in the examples
- Rows after the default structure's last column are never read / handled when importing
- Never have hidden columns in your data sheets

What data is this integration used for


- Competencies and categories for these competencies

After import you can find the integrated data in the admin view's Competencies tab. Competencies can be added to users of Silverbucket to map their skills and abilities in the company.
