# Submit Import

> Submit a validated import session for downstream processing

# Submit Import

Submit a validated import session for downstream processing. This creates the data file and starts the processing pipeline that will ingest the records into your organization's data.

<Warning>
  Submission is irreversible. Once submitted, the session cannot be modified or re-submitted. Make sure all row corrections are complete before submitting.
</Warning>
