Introduction | Yext Hitchhikers Platform

This guide will walk you through how to upload files to Yext Content using the Connectors Framework.

With the File Upload Generic Source you can upload Excel, CSV, and JSON files within the Connectors framework. This source allows users to take advantage of the data cleansing capabilities of the Connectors workflow for ingesting and updating data.

With the addition of this new data connector source there are now two ways to ingest data files to pull data into Yext:

  • Existing Entity Upload
  • File Upload via Connectors

For a full breakdown of feature gaps between File Upload via Connectors and the existing Entity Upload framework, visit the File Upload Generic Source Reference doc .
