Import by hand
Copy an export string out of the game and paste it into the import page, without using the companion app.
If you do not want to run the companion app, or you are not on Windows, you can copy an export string out of the game and paste it into the website. This works for raid, PvP and world data.
Before you start
- The addon must be installed in your game. See Install the addon.
- Sign in on the website first. An import made while signed in is filed under your guild and attaches your characters to your account. An import made while signed out is still stored, but it is not attached to a guild until a signed-in member imports the same raid.
Steps
-
In game, type the export command for the data you want:
Data Addon Command Raid data: attendance, boss kills, loot, rosters GuildPro /gp exportPvP data PvPLedger /pvpexportWorld data MobMetrics /mmexport -
A window opens with the export string selected. Press Ctrl+C to copy it.
-
Open /import and paste into the box that says “Paste the export string here…”.
-
If the export has more than one part, go back to the game, click Next >, copy that part and paste it into the same box under the previous one. The order does not matter.
-
Watch the line next to the buttons. It shows which parts have arrived, for example “have 2 of 3, missing 3”, and changes to “complete (3 parts)” when everything is there.
-
Click Import.
-
For a GuildPro export, go back to the game and click Mark as pasted. The next
/gp exportthen carries only what is new.
Reading the result
The page shows Imported, Already imported or Import failed, with a count of what landed:
| Count | Meaning |
|---|---|
| New | Facts the site did not have before |
| Already known | Facts the site already had. These are not stored twice. |
| Raids | Raids in this export |
| Characters | Characters in this export |
| Counter sets | Lifetime totals updated (PvP and world data) |
| Stale, ignored | Totals older than what the site already holds |
If the result includes a claim code and “sign in and this character links to your profile”, you imported while signed out. Sign in and import again, or paste the code on /me under Claim a character by code.
Which export to use
/gp exportsends what is new since you last clicked Mark as pasted. Use this after each raid./gp export allsends everything the addon has ever recorded. Use it the first time, or to fill a gap. It is much longer.- To send one run only, open the panel with
/gp, pick the run on the Runs tab and click Export this run. Tick several runs and click Export selected to send those. A picked export does not change what counts as “new”.
Pasting the same export twice is safe. Nothing is counted twice.
Errors you may see
| Message | Cause | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| “This export is damaged — a part was probably truncated when it was copied. Re-copy it from the game.” | A part was cut short when copying | Click Clear, then copy each part again |
| The line shows “missing” followed by part numbers and Import stays greyed out | Not every part has been pasted | Paste the missing parts |
| “This export was made by an addon this site does not understand (wire …). Update the addon.” | Your addon is newer or older than the site expects | Update the addon |
| “Could not reach the server. Your export is still in the game — try again.” | Network problem | Try again. Nothing is lost. |
| “This browser cannot decompress the export.” | The browser is too old for compressed exports | Use a current browser |
| “This export is too large to paste, so nothing was imported.” | The paste is over the size limit | See Import too large |
Good to know
- The export is built from what the addon holds right now. You do not need to
/reloadbefore a hand export. - Auction prices are not part of a hand export. They are sent only by the companion app.
- The /import page also shows an upload key with Copy and Roll buttons. Treat it like a password. Clicking Roll disconnects the companion app on every computer you have paired, and you will have to sign in to the app again.
