# Import, export, and bulk edit opportunities in HoopAI

> Import, export, bulk edit, and delete multiple HoopAI opportunities at once to save time when managing large deal volumes.

Bulk actions let you operate on multiple opportunities simultaneously, saving time when managing large deal volumes.

## Available bulk actions

* **Import opportunities** — create opportunities in bulk from a CSV file
* **Export opportunities** — download a filtered set of opportunities as CSV
* **Bulk edit** — update fields (stage, assigned user, close date, value) across many opportunities at once
* **Bulk delete** — permanently remove multiple opportunities
* **Bulk restore** — recover recently deleted opportunities

## Importing opportunities

<Steps>
  <Step title="Prepare your CSV file">
    Your file must:

    * Be in CSV format
    * Contain only one sheet
    * Be under 30 MB
    * Have a header row with columns matching opportunity fields (e.g., Contact Name, Pipeline, Stage, Value, Close Date)
  </Step>

  <Step title="Click Import">
    In the Opportunities section, click the **Import** button.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Upload and map fields">
    Upload your CSV and map each column to the appropriate Hoop opportunity field.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Confirm the import">
    Review the preview and click **Confirm** to import.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Warning>
  Opportunity imports cannot be reversed. Verify your field mapping carefully before confirming.
</Warning>

## Importing contacts and opportunities together

You can import contacts and their associated opportunities in a single CSV file. Structure your CSV to include both contact fields and opportunity fields in each row. Hoop will create the contact record and the linked opportunity simultaneously.

## Filtering before bulk actions

Use the filter controls to narrow down the opportunities you want to act on before selecting them.
