# How to schedule in bulk using a CSV file

Scheduling a bulk with the help of a CSV file can be the most optimal time-saving technique in your social media scheduling journey. 

You can create up to 500 posts with the CSV file. Publer will provide a [downloadable template](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_k4ks-plHQKYa9-597gxoaoVbNV-X2wPmGaus_5LSos/edit#gid=0) that contains a guide on how to use it. The [CSV file](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_k4ks-plHQKYa9-597gxoaoVbNV-X2wPmGaus_5LSos/edit#gid=0) can contain links, media, text only, etc. according to your preferences. Learn more about the CSV file [here](https://help.publer.io/en/article/how-to-use-a-csv-file-18qhxcq/).

After [creating the CSV](/en/article/how-to-use-a-csv-file-18qhxcq/) file and populating it with all your desired posts you are ready to upload and use it.

* Once the CSV is fully uploaded, you will get a notification.
