If you want to add new material to a project using a CSV file, follow these steps:

1. Start by cloning an existing project. This is important because it will keep the settings in place.

2. Make sure you keep the project URL unchanged.

3. Once you have cloned the project, go to the "Files" tab and click on the "Add files" button.

4. In the window that appears, click on the "Upload CSV" button.

5. A pop-up window will appear. Select the CSV file you wish to upload and click "Open".

6. All the necessary columns will be automatically filled in. The only thing you need to do is click on the "Create" button.

7. Once you have done this, the files will be ready for annotation and will be added to the project.

At the bottom of the Files tab, you will find the Export to CSV button, which allows you to download the information you have selected on the page. The page also displays the number of files currently displayed, the refresh button, and the page transition buttons.

Exporting files to CSV enables you to open them in a table later.

You can select the required number of rows displayed on the page by using the Select rows option. The minimum value is 25 rows, while the maximum value is 1000 rows.
