# Add Attendees

Once you’ve configured the settings, added the schedule, and customized the design, you can invite attendees.

Attendees will have their own profile page and can save a custom schedule. They can also connect to their Facebook to see what their friends are attending.

### **Add Attendees One At A Time**

1. From your Control Panel, go to the **Attendees** tab.
2. Click the plus sign (+) button, then enter the attendee’s name, photo, email, and any other necessary information.
3. Click **“Add”** or **“Add + Invite”** to instantly add the attendee to your directory. If you’re not ready for attendees to log in yet, you can send the invite later.![add](https://support.sched.com/hs-fs/hubfs/add.jpg?width=688&height=599&name=add.jpg)

### **Add Many Attendees At Once**

Add many attendees at once using the directory spreadsheet in Excel. We recommend importing once and managing changes through the control panel. Although, you can export and re-import at any time. This will overwrite any changes made in the control panel, so ensure your team sticks to one strategy.

 

**Tips for Using the Directory Spreadsheet:**

- **Not Possible To Delete Attendees:** Deleting a row and re-importing will not delete people from your event. You can only delete people from your control panel.
- **Required Format:** Do not delete Rows 1 - 5 or any of the columns or importing will not work. Resize columns you aren't using so they take up less space.
- **Renaming Attendees**: You can only rename attendees manually in the control panel by clicking “Edit” on their profile.

**Steps to Add Attendees Using the Spreadsheet:**

1. Go to **Attendees** and click the plus sign (+).
2. Click **“Download Spreadsheet.”** This will include any existing attendees. Leave them intact, and only new attendees will be added when you re-import.
3. Add your attendee information in a new row and save the file.![image (67)](https://support.sched.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image%20(67).png?width=688&height=348&name=image%20(67).png)
4. Once you’re ready to import, click **“Select a File”** and then **“Import.”**
5. When importing, you can choose to send attendees an invite to log in and make changes to their profiles.
