Import Accounts via API

Is it possible to import new accounts via the API instead of using the CSV file and import button under accounts?

I am new to SuiteCRM and still trying to figure out how everything works.

Thanks,
Shan

Hi, welcome to the Community! :tada:

Yes, you can use the API to do operations on the Accounts module, including creation.

This would be better suited for online operations (an account is created in some other system, and you add it also in SuiteCRM), not for mass operations like a big initial import. But even that would depend on how many records we might be talking about, it might not be problematic.
