1. Add an API Key and production API URL in a .env file.

API_KEY=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
API_URL=https://api.opencollective.com

2. Download the CSV file

3. Launch the dry run with:

node github-sponsors/csv-import.js {CSV_FILE}

If you see:

• "Detected a new Collective ...", it's recommended to quickly review it and add it to the csv-import-mapping.json file.
• "Error finding a matching Collective for GitHub Organization ...", you need to investigate and add an entry in the csv-import-mapping.json file.

4. Happy with the dry run?

node github-sponsors/csv-import.js {CSV_FILE} --run
