Bulk Event Import
Import an entire season of events from a spreadsheet or iCal feed in one step.
Season planning often starts in a spreadsheet or an existing calendar system. Basker now lets you import events in bulk from a CSV or an iCal (.ics) feed, so you can get a full programme live without creating events one at a time.
CSV import
Download the import template from Settings, fill in your event data, and upload it. Basker maps columns to event fields, shows you a preview of what will be created, and flags any rows with missing required fields before importing.
Required columns: title, start date, start time, venue. Optional columns include end time, synopsis, category, cover image URL, and ticketing link.
iCal feed
Point Basker at a publicly accessible iCal URL. Events are pulled in and matched to your venue list by name. You can set a refresh schedule so the feed stays in sync, or import once and manage the events in Basker going forward.
After import
Imported events are created as drafts. Review them in the Events list, make any adjustments, then publish individually or in bulk.
