## Overview

Use this mode when your team uploads feeds manually from the Algure app. You can prepare data in Excel, but the standard upload format is UTF-8 CSV.

## Prerequisites

* Manual feed uploads must be enabled for the organization
* The user role must meet the minimum role configured for manual uploads
* The file must follow [Catalog Feed / Columns](/integration/catalog-feed/columns) and [Catalog Feed / Formats](/integration/catalog-feed/formats)

## Workflow

  <Step title="Prepare the file">
    Export your feed as UTF-8 CSV following the catalog feed rules.

  <Step title="Upload in Algure">
    Use the manual feed uploader and send one file.

  <Step title="Wait for processing">
    Algure validates and processes the feed asynchronously.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Get optional notification">
    Enable email notification if you want a message when processing ends.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Limits
