Adding your roster (CSV)

The fastest way to get your whole team into SportStudio is a spreadsheet import. Once your roster lives in a collection, you can batch-create a video for every player.

Prepare your CSV

Build a spreadsheet with one row per player. Add a column for each detail you want, like first name, last name, number, position, class or year, and a headshot image URL. Save it as a CSV. Close column names are fine. SportStudio tries to match them for you.

Import it into a collection

• Open the Collections panel and choose or create your roster collection.
• Click Import CSV and pick your file. You can also use Import from URL to pull a roster from a web page.
• SportStudio previews the first few rows so you can check it read the file right.
• Match each field to the right column. Common names map on their own, like "jersey" to Number or "photo" to Headshot. Fix any that don't line up.
• Choose whether to replace the existing rows or add these as new ones, then import.

We clean up headshots for you

If your CSV includes headshot image URLs, SportStudio fetches each one and removes the background for you. Your players stay consistent, and you skip the manual cropping.

Use your roster

With the roster in, link it to a template and render one video per player. See Linking a collection for the next step.
