User File Management

If you're not using an HRIS integration, you can still manage your user list in sayhii using our file upload feature.

This gives you control over how users are added and updated—and ensures your employee data stays aligned with sayhii's structure.

Each upload uses a unique User Identifier to track changes:

• If the User Identifier is new, a new user will be created.
• If the User Identifier matches an existing user, their record will be updated with the new information.

note

After uploading a file, you'll see a confirmation message in the lower-left corner of the screen showing how many users were added or updated.

CSV Format

sayhii expects a properly formatted CSV file. You can wrap any value that includes commas in double quotes.

Below are the fields you can include in your file. Only two fields are required: the unique identifier and the user’s email address.

User Attribute	Allowed CSV Column Names	Required	Notes
User Identifier	id, object_id, objectid, object_guid, objectguid	✅ Yes	A unique ID used to match and update user records across uploads. This value should remain consistent.
