# Photo-Upload in Batch


:::warning
***IMPORTANT -*** The users must be members of the **same group** to upload photos to many users.

:::

 ![](https://outline-production-attachments.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com/uploads/6c0da235-ff99-49fd-81af-d32f613692dd/fdceeaa9-855b-42f7-a85a-0af465d3d2ef/103221525.gif?X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Content-Sha256=UNSIGNED-PAYLOAD&X-Amz-Credential=AKIA4EOUDTOVUICLPZ4P%2F20260909%2Fus-east-1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20260909T151500Z&X-Amz-Expires=86400&X-Amz-Signature=396adb6d046d9d8c7296ee3f5472ec0bef7d9c4f7d37ffa36d6527051fbfa361&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&x-amz-checksum-mode=ENABLED&x-id=GetObject)


 1. In the **User Manager** module, switch to the [**Batch User Create**](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ess-hs/doc/batch-user-create-yYyM1HaA4A) tab.
 2. From the ***Download template*** drop-down, select the group in which you intend to upload photos to the members' accounts, then click **Download**.  

    An Excel file containing all data about each selected group member entered into the system will be downloaded.
 3. **Create a folder containing the Excel file** saved from the system and **all the picture files** intended to be attached to users.

    
:::warning
    ***IMPORTANT:*** The picture files should be named consistently and unambiguously.

    :::
 4. Open the Excel and **copy the exact name of the picture file** in column M ***(User Photo)*** to the corresponding name. **Include the format (**E.g., ***Photo.jpeg***). Your .zip file should include **only** *.jpg and .jpeg* photos. Uploading other file formats in BUC will not be successful.

    
:::warning
    ***IMPORTANT***: If the name of the photo as listed in Excel and the actual name of the photo file are not the same, the system will not be able to find and thus upload the photo.  
    __Always enter the file format in lowercase letters__ for successful file upload.

    Some example spreadsheet entries: ***Correct:*** *FILENAME.jpg, filename.jpg, FileName.jpg, FiLEnAme.jpg*

    ***Incorrect****: ~~FILENAME.JPG~~*

    :::
 5. **Compress the folder** (i.e., the completed Excel and all the photos) **into a *.zip* file**.

    
:::warning
    ***IMPORTANT:*** Sending a single folder containing all the files to a zipped folder will result in a format uninterpretable by the system. Therefore, the files (i.e., the photos and the Excel sheet) should be individually selected and sent to the "compressed (zipped) folder".

    :::
 6. On the **Batch User Create** tab, click **Next** to move forward to **Step 2** of the process.
 7. Click **Browse** and **upload the *zip* file**.
 8. Switch the radio button to ***Update the existing user account***, then click **Next**.

    
:::info
    ***NOTE:*** The **Next** button only becomes activated when a file is selected for upload.

    :::

    Step 3 appears with an overview of how the system will upload the changes in the user accounts. Check the photo column for the uploaded images.

    
:::warning
    ***IMPORTANT:*** In case of any problem, the system lists the specific errors on the **Step 3** surface. In such a case, the user must return to **Step 2** and upload the *zip* file corrected according to the error messages.

    :::
 9. Click **Finalize** at the bottom of the tab.   
    The **Step 4** surface appears with a summary of the number of updated user accounts and, if any, the number of user accounts that have not been uploaded due to accessibility issues.  
10. Click **Done** at the bottom of the tab to **conclude the Batch User Create** process.
11. Check the created/updated User accounts in the User Manager, for the uploaded images.
