- Select how to import people using their email addresses:
- To enter or paste a series of email addresses, select Enter comma-separated email addresses then enter the email addresses of the people that you want to add or invite. Make sure the email addresses are separated by a comma.
- To upload a comma-separated value (.csv) file, select Select a CSV file of email addresses then click Choose File to select the file from your local system.

Note: If the community is external and you enter an email address for a person who is outside of your organization, or your file contains an email address for a person who is outside of your organization, you are prompted to send that person a guest invitation after you click Import. Guest members must first accept the invitation to join as a guest user before they can access the communities to which they have been imported as members.
