+## Import and Export Chemicals
+
+The Import and Export of chemical data functionality has been integrated into the core ELN export/import data feature within the Chemotion ELN platform. For a comprehensive understanding of the fundamental procedures involved in importing and exporting various elements and samples within the ELN system, you can check the [Import and Export data](toolbar?_highlight=xlsx#import-and-export-data-to-and-from-the-chemotion-eln) section.
+Users are provided with the flexibility to choose between exporting/importing individual chemical samples or multiple selected samples. This functionality is conveniently accessible through the Export/Import Menu toolbar icon ![Export Menu](/img/action_bar_import_export.png). The export and import of chemical samples is currently supported in the xlsx and csv formats.

+### Export Chemicals
+
+
+To initiate the export of a chemical sample, the user is required to select the export samples selection from Export/Import Menu toolbar option. Within the Select Data to Export menu, the user is afforded the opportunity to designate their preferred chemical options for export, in conjunction with the fundamental sample properties that have already been designated.
+Additionally, the user can opt to include further sample or molecule properties to the exported sheet. An example of export chemical process is shown below.

+
+### Import Chemicals
+
+To start the import of chemical samples process, users should follow these steps:
+- Access the import chemicals to collection option located within the Export/Import Selection Menu toolbar.
+- Click the import chemicals to collection menu button to open an interface for uploading the chemical sheet.
+- It is strongly recommended that users utilize the provided chemical template below, as importing chemicals necessitates specific data points. In order to import a sample into Chemotion ELN, it is generally required to have at least one of the following columns present in the import data:
+Canonical Smiles (Smiles) or Molfile. while the remaining columns are optional, providing more details is encouraged for comprehensive record-keeping.
+- Additionally, users have the capability to import safety data sheets into Chemotion ELN by entering relevant information into the designated fields such as safety data sheet and vendor. Please note that this option is presently compatible only with the Merck vendor.
+- Importing is also feasible for samples and chemicals that do not possess a chemical structure (referred to as decoupled samples). In such instances, users should indicate the value yes in the column of decoupled. If the sample has chemical structure, it is imperative to ensure that any of the columns relevant to the chemical structure, such as molfile and canonical smiles contain valid data.
