# Import Video Gallery

 * Greetings. I’d like to import about 200 video files into a gallery. They are 
   all hosted at Vimeo, I have the video URLs and captions in a database. I see 
   that the Export format is JSON so I assume the import format is also JSON.
 * It also appears that Envira Gallery automatically pulls Vimeo thumbnail image
   URLs when a file is manually added.
 * If I create a JSON file with no thumbnail URLS’s and import that file to populate
   the Gallery, will EG reach out and pull the thumbnails?
 * If not, is there a way, perhaps via a custom script, to make that happen?

 * I have figured out how to access the thumbnail images using the Vimeo API.
 * Can you point me to the documentation for the required data for a JSON video 
   import file?

 * Hello [@oregondean](https://wordpress.org/support/users/oregondean/)
 * Thanks for reaching out. Unfortunately, we don’t have documentation about it 
   as this functionality was not created for people to generate the file manually
   and actually was implemented to export and import galleries withing Envira.
