# Import multiple repositories by uploading a manifest file
GitLab allows you to import all the required git repositories based on the
Android repository manifest file.
You can do it by following next steps:
1. From your GitLab dashboard click **New project**
1. Switch to the **Import project** tab
1. Click on the **Manifest file** button
1. Provide GitLab with a manifest xml file
1. Select a group you want to import to (you need to create a group first if you don't have one)
1. Click **Import projects**
1. You will be redirected to the import status page with projects list based on manifest file
1. Check the list and click 'Import all repositories' to start import.

### Manifest format
A manifest must be an XML file. There must be one `remote` tag with `review` attribute
that contains a URL to a git server. Each `project` tag must have `name` and `path` attribute.
GitLab will build URL to the repository by combining URL from `remote` tag with a project name.
A path attribute will be used to represent project path in GitLab system.
Below is a valid example of manifest file.
```xml
<manifest>
<remote review="https://android-review.googlesource.com/" />
<project path="build/make" name="platform/build" />
<project path="build/blueprint" name="platform/build/blueprint" />
</manifest>
```
As result next projects will be created:
| GitLab | Import URL |
|---|---|
| https://gitlab/YOUR_GROUP/build/make | https://android-review.googlesource.com/platform/build |
| https://gitlab/YOUR_GROUP/build/blueprint | https://android-review.googlesource.com/platform/build/blueprint |
