How to Import your Logbook into KAYA

Migrating your ascent data into KAYA only takes a couple minutes. KAYA supports importing your past ascents from existing platforms via spreadsheets (.csv files).

Please follow the simple steps below to retrieve your own ascent data and import it into your KAYA profile.

Please note the below guides are working at the time of writing this article; however, they are 3rd party tools that are subject to change as the maintainers see fit.

1. retrieve your data in .csv format

8A.NU

Retrieve your .csv for your own personal data via this 3rd party source: 8a Logbook Exporter. Be sure to use the link for “Info” section of your profile to capture both route and boulder history. If this fails, please send an email to [email protected]. Unfortunately 8a does not provide a simple way for users to retrieve their own data, so users are dependent on these 3rd party tools maintained by the community.

SENDAGE

First, Login to your profile. Then export your .csv for your own personal data via this link or go to your Sendage Profile -> Settings -> Export Sends. Note: You must be logged in to your account to export your sends.

MOUNTAIN PROJECT

Navigate to your Mountain Project profile -> Next to “Ticks”, click “View All” to see a list of all of your ascents -> Click the “Export CSV” link at the top to retrieve your .csv file.

Once you’ve retrieved and/or formatted your .csv of ascent data you can simply import it via the KAYA app. Please ensure the .csv file is downloaded on your phone. Also please ensure you’ve downloaded and installed KAYA for IOS or ANDROID, and are logged in to your KAYA account.
