Bulk Alerts Creation
Multifollow allows you to create multiple trackers at once using a CSV file.
CSV File Format
Your CSV file should use commas as delimiters (","). The first row must contain the column headers, and each subsequent row represents one alert configuration.
Required Columns
| Column name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| platform | string | The social media platform where the new activity is detected. Possible values: "linkedin", "twitter" |
| profile url | string | The URL of the profile you are tracking |
Optional Columns
| Column name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| track posts | boolean | Monitor posts published by this profile |
| track comments | boolean | Monitor comments made by this profile |
| track likes | boolean | Monitor likes given by this profile (LinkedIn only) |
| message included keywords | string | Only alert when the post/comment contains one of these keywords (comma-separated, max 10, 2–200 characters) |
| message excluded keywords | string | Suppress alerts when the post/comment contains one of these keywords (comma-separated, max 10, 2–200 characters) |
| api webhook url | string | Optional. Alerts from this tracker are sent to this API webhook URL, taking precedence over the account-level API webhook. Requires a plan with API webhooks. |
| slack webhook url | string | Optional. Alerts from this tracker are sent to this Slack webhook URL, taking precedence over the account-level Slack webhook. Requires a plan with Slack webhooks. |

File Size Limit
The maximum file size for import is 10 MB. This should be more than enough for most use cases, as a typical CSV file with hundreds of keywords will be much smaller, but if you need to import a larger file, please contact us.
Import Process
- Prepare your CSV file following the format described above
- Go to the Bulk Import page in your KWatch dashboard
- Click "Choose File" and select your CSV file
- Optionally, enable "Override existing alerts" if you want to replace all your current alerts
- Click "Import file"
After the import is complete, you'll see a success message, and your new alerts will be immediately active.
