Read CSV file and Insert record using Apex in Salesforce

 

Hi Folks, In this blog we will try to understand how we can upload CSV file from LWC and How to read CSV file and Insert records using Apex in Salesforce.

CSV File that we are going to read:-


LWC Component-

                               

fileUpload.html

<template>
<lightning-card title="CSV Uploader ">
<div class="slds-box slds-m-around_medium">
<lightning-file-upload accept={acceptedFormats}
label="Attach CSV File"
onuploadfinished={uploadFileHandler}>
</lightning-file-upload>
</div>
</lightning-card>
</template>


fileUpload.js

import { LightningElement,track } from 'lwc';
import loadCSVData from '@salesforce/apex/CSVController.loadCSVData';
import { ShowToastEvent } from 'lightning/platformShowToastEvent';

export default class FileUploadExcel extends LightningElement {

get acceptedFormats() {
return ['.csv'];
}

@track contentDocumentId;
@track recordCount;

uploadFileHandler( event ) {
const uploadedFiles = event.detail.files;

// to get File Name
console.log('file name is:-'+uploadedFiles[0].name);

// to get document id
console.log('document id is:-'+uploadedFiles[0].documentId);

this.contentDocumentId=uploadedFiles[0].documentId;
loadCSVData({ contentDocumentId : this.contentDocumentId })
.then((result)=>{
this.recordCount=result;
const event = new ShowToastEvent({
title: 'Success',
message:
this.recordCount+' Account records inserted Successfully.',
variant:'success',
mode:'dismissible'
});
this.dispatchEvent(event);
})
.catch((error)=>{
this.error = error;
const event=new ShowToastEvent({
title:'Error',
variant:'error',
message:'Error while creating Records',
mode:'dismissible'
})
this.dispatchEvent(event);
})

}
}

ContentVersion contentVersionObj = [ SELECT Id, VersionData FROM
ContentVersion WHERE
ContentDocumentId =:contentDocumentId ];
list<account> acclist=new list<Account>();
String data= contentVersionObj.VersionData.toString();

string[] csvFileLines=data.split('\n');

for(Integer i=1;i<csvFileLines.size();i++){
string[] csvRecordData = csvFileLines[i].split(',');
Account accObj = new Account() ;
accObj.name = csvRecordData[0] ;
accObj.rating = csvRecordData[1];
accObj.Industry = csvRecordData[2];
acclist.add(accObj);
}
