Import & Export
Bulk import URLs and export your watches
Site Spy lets you import URLs in bulk and export your watch data for backup or migration.
Bulk import
- Go to Dashboard Settings
- Open the Data tab
- In the Bulk Import section, paste URLs (one per line) or upload a
.txt/.csvfile - Click Import
The import runs in the background. Duplicate URLs are automatically skipped.
Supported formats
- Plain text — One URL per line in the textarea
- File upload —
.txtor.csvfiles containing URLs
URLs must start with http:// or https://. Invalid URLs are skipped during import.
Export
From the same Data tab, you have two export options:
Export as JSON
Downloads a .json file containing all your watches with full configuration — URLs, titles, tags, and settings. The file includes:
{
"version": "1.0",
"exported_at": "2025-01-15T10:30:00Z",
"source": "sitespy.app",
"watch_count": 12,
"watches": { ... }
}Export as URL list
Downloads a plain text file with one URL per line. This format can be directly re-imported using Bulk Import.
Round-trip workflow
You can export your watches as a URL list from one account and import them into another. This is useful for migrating between accounts or sharing a monitoring list with a team member.
