Import Tags From CSV

You can find Import Tags From CSV in the top menu bar under Utility ➡ Other

Sometimes you want to import data from external sources that are not directly supported by Lexicon. An easy way to do this is by turning that data into a CSV file.

Lexicon will match your CSV file rows by the Location column. This column is required in your CSV file. See below for an example CSV file. The Location column must contain the full track location. This is what Lexicon uses to find what track it is supposed to update.

Fields

You can import the following fields, the CSV column headers must be exactly one of these (case insensitive):

Title
Artist
Artist
AlbumTitle
Label
Remixer
Mix
Composer
Producer
Grouping
Lyricist
Comment
Key
Genre
Rating
Year
PlayCount
TrackNumber
Energy
Danceability
Popularity
Happiness
Extra1
Extra2

The fields Rating, Year, TrackNumber, Energy, Danceability, Popularity, Happiness are numbers. If a non-number value is found, it will be turned into zero.

Excel

Excel files are not directly supported, but Excel and any other similar program can save your sheets as CSV file.

Report

A report is created in your Documents/Lexicon/Reports folder.
