# Import

Downie can import CSV or XML files with downloads to be processed with custom titles. To import such list of links, select `File > Import from File...` and follow on-screen instructions.

There several limitations as to what links are supported in this - the links must be directly supported by Downie, they must not be links handled by various Downie’s extraction techniques. Example: link to an embedded YouTube video (https://www.youtube.com/embed/xkEju-deJsE) is OK, link to a site that embeds that video and would require Downie to look around that page’s source code for the link is not.

#### CSV Format

The CSV file must contain two columns named `url` and `title`. Optional is a `path` column which may contain custom destination. Other columns may be present and will be omitted. Here is an example:

    url,title
    https://www.youtube.com/embed/xkEju-deJsE,My Video Title

#### XML Format

The XML file must contain a root element called `downloads`, filled with children `download`, each containing `url` and `title`. Optional is a `path` child which may contain custom destination. Here is an example:

    <downloads>
    	<download>
    		<url>https://www.youtube.com/embed/xkEju-deJsE</url>
    		<title>My Video Title</title>
    	</download>
    </downloads>
