Importing webinar registrants by CSV upload

With Zoom Webinars registration, registrants can be imported by CSV upload and automatically approved. Once they have successfully been imported, a confirmation email will be sent to the registrants. 

The CSV file can be up to 2MB. 

Notes:

• If charging a registration fee through Paypal is enabled for the webinar, this option will not be available.
• Can only upload registrants to single-occurrence(non-recurring) webinars.
• If your registration has additional required questions, imported registrants will be redirected to the registration page to complete the missing required questions. 

Prerequisites for importing registrants through CSV upload

• Pro, Business, Education, or Enterprise account
• Zoom Webinars add-on
