Bookmarks (incl. bookmark properties) can be imported from the first sheet of an Excel workbook or an CSV file. Supported file extensions are xls, xlsx and csv.
The first row must contain the field names that should be imported. The following rows must contain the values of the bookmark properties (one bookmark per row).
