How to Batch Upload iNaturalist Observations to a particular Project

How to Batch Upload iNaturalist Observations to a particular Project – in this case, the Canada 150 – Canada Day Biodiversity Challenge. Prepared by Colin D. Jones.

Step #1 – go to the relevant project page, in this case
and click on “Add from your observations”

This will search for and show any observations that meet the project’s criteria – see graphic below.
Step #2 – click on “Batch edit”



Step #3 – click on “Select All”



This will select all of the observations (see check in box to the left of each observation).
Step #4 – click on “Add to project”



This will bring up a window of all of the projects that you have joined.
Step #5 – click on “Add” next to the relevant project – in this case “Canada 150 – Canada Day Biodiversity Challenge”



That’s it – you’re done. All of these observation will now be added to the project.
If additional observations are added to iNaturalist later, the same process can be used to batch upload another set.
