Is there any way I can import selections in a text file into a csv file suitable for importing into Bot manager

Hi David,

Yes, that is possible.
Details you can find here: https://www.bfbotmanager.com/documents/ ... manual.pdf (chapter: 5.3.2).

Thanks for that but can`t find where it addresses converting a text file to a csv file suitable for importing as a tips file?

Hi Dave,

When exporting tips CSV file you will be asked for your tipster name.
Than you must select folder where this file would be saved.

Hi Lazo

Thanks your assistance.

Just to clarify I am looking to try and convert selections generated by a 3`rd party software program as a text file and then convert this text file into a CSV file suitable to be imported to the BF Bot software. The 3rd party software has no interface with Betfair so doesn`t have the SelectionID, EventID etc information available. The fields the text file produces are : Date, Time, TrackName, RaceNo, HorseName .

Maybe by using the HorseName field only and putting myself as the Provider it would be sufficient?

Best Regards

Hi Dave,

Thank you for clarifying this.

You can manually create file with your selections and specify only basic information like
selection name and market type (WIN, PLACE, FORECAST, MATCH_ODDS etc.). Here is an example of
CSV file for 3 selections that can be imported successfully:

Thanks Lazo

Your Information is really helpfull!

I will give it a try and see how I go!

Cheers
