You can use the list component to quickly turn a spreadsheet of information into a beautiful presentation with just a few clicks. The list can either be created manually in Rise Vision, uploaded as a CSV file or linked directly to your Google Sheet.

Editing the List component
Presentations with the list component can either be edited manually or take data that is uploaded from a CSV file.
You can edit the data right in Rise Vision by clicking on My List and typing directly over the existing data in the fields. New rows can be added by clicking on the Add Row button. You can reorder items with the
handles, or delete them with the
bin.
For any fields that can take an image, you can either paste in any HTTPS URL to an image, or click on the selector to upload to Rise Vision storage.
Uploading a CSV
The easiest way to upload a data file of your own is to first click on Export CSV to get the existing data and view the data format.
Open the CSV in the spreadsheet viewer of your choice, and then paste your data in the same format it appears in the original CSV. Make sure the resulting CSV has the same number of columns as the original.
Export the edited file as a CSV. In most software this can be done with File > Export > CSV. Make sure the resulting file name ends in .csv.
Lastly, return to Rise Vision and click on Import CSV to upload the file you just created. The list and presentation will update automatically.
