Getting Started

Let's integrate the UseCSV Importer plugin with your React app.

Make sure you configured your importer before starting.

Install​

Using NPM​

npm install @usecsv/react

Using YARN​

yarn add @usecsv/react

Add the Importer​

Adding the UseCSV component to your frontend will render a button that triggers the import modal when clicked.

Code example with default button​

Check codesandbox example.

import UseCSV from "@usecsv/react";

const App = () => {
return (
<div>
<h1>Start importing your data</h1>
<UseCSV importerKey="your-importer-key" user={{ userId: "12345" }}>
Import Data
</UseCSV>
</div>
);
};

export default App;

The component contents will be used as the button text.

Usage Exmaple

Code example with custom render prop​

Check codesandbox example.

More details can be found in render prop

import UseCSV from "@usecsv/react";

function App() {
const renderButton = (openModal) => {
return (
<button
onClick={openModal}
style={{
width: "170px",
height: "70px",
color: "#fff",
backgroundColor: "#027ad6",
boxShadow: "0 32px 64px rgba(0,0,0,0.07);",
font: "700 24px sans-serif",
textAlign: "center",
border: "none",
borderRadius: "3px",
}}
>
Import Data
</button>
);
};
return (
<div className="App">
<UseCSV
importerKey="your-importer-key"
user={{ userId: 12345 }}
render={(openModal) => renderButton(openModal)}
/>
</div>
);
}

export default App;
Usage example with render

Now your users can import data from within your app, the final step is to setup a webhook in your backend to receive imports. Let's goto the Webhook docs.
