# Arive CSV import, step by step

> A written walkthrough of the video showing how to bring your Arive loans into Leaf360 by CSV export, if Arive doesn't give you the Direct API option.

This is the written version of a short video showing how to get all of your Arive loans into Leaf360 by CSV, for accounts that don't have the Direct API option and are on Zapier instead.

<Note>
  Quick check first: if Arive gives you the Direct API option, use that instead — see [How to import Arive loans into Leaf360 using Direct API](/faq/arive-import-loans-direct-api). This CSV method is the fallback for Zapier-only accounts.

## Importing by CSV

<Steps>
  <Step title="Connect Arive in Leaf360">
    In Leaf360, click **Account Settings**, go to **Integrations**, and open **Arive**. Enter your Client ID, Secret Key, and API Key.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add your LOS email alias if needed">
    If your Leaf360 login email is different from your Arive account email, provide your LOS email alias so the two stay linked.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Export your loans from Arive">
    In Arive, use **Import Loan Data** to export all of your loans. A linked help doc shows exactly how to export them as a CSV file if you need it.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Upload the CSV into Leaf360">
    Back in Leaf360, choose the CSV file you just exported and select it in the importer.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Everything is already mapped">
    Once uploaded, you don't need to touch anything — Leaf360 recognizes Arive's own column headers and everything is already going to be mapped for you.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Confirm mapping and preview">
    Click **Confirm Mapping and Preview**, then complete the import. That's how you get all your loans into Leaf360 without the Direct API integration.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  For the full list of fields that come across on an imported loan, see the "Arive loans imported by file" section on the [Arive](/integrations/arive) reference page, or [Import Data](/mortgage-crm/import-data) for importing outside of a specific loan pipeline.
