How to import/create multiple events from .csv?

Question

how do one import/create multiple events from an existing .csv file?

I checked the "API csv Import"-Extension (https://civicrm.org/extensions/api-csv-import-gui). But this only updates existing events.

or

I thought of creating multiple "empty" events with only an event-id and then updating it through the api-csv-import-ui. Can somebody give me a hint how to do that? (I am not super experienced with the api). Or even providing me with a code snippet, for create multiple events with event-ids from x-y.

Thanks in advance. Stefan

Yes you can use the API CSV extension to import new events. Here is a good guide to do so: https://wapix.co/importing-events-to-civicrm/.

thanks a lot. It worked. Important: "To import a set of new data, omit the Event ID field" – stefan Nov 3 '20 at 6:52
