Generate Bulk Discount Codes in Eventbrite From an Excel workbook

The Scenario

The B2B conference is eight weeks out. Your marketing manager has committed to giving each of 40 sponsor partners a unique 20%-off promo code to share with their networks. The codes are in an Excel workbook — one row per partner, with the code string, the discount percentage, and the maximum number of uses. Creating 40 discount codes manually in Eventbrite means 40 trips through the discount creation form.

The bad version:

  • Open Eventbrite, navigate to your event's Discount Codes section, click Create Code, type in the first partner's code string, set the discount to 20%, set the max uses, and save.
  • Repeat 39 times. By code 17, you've pasted the wrong partner's code string into the wrong row and won't notice until a partner reports that their code is "taken."
  • Go back to reconcile which codes are live, which are wrong, and which you still need to create — by which point the sponsor relationship manager is asking for a status update.

You have 40 partners waiting and a campaign launch date that doesn't move.

The Easy Way: One Prompt in SheetXAI

SheetXAI is an AI agent that lives inside your Excel workbook. It reads your promo code table and creates every discount code in Eventbrite in a single pass, writing the returned discount IDs back into your workbook so you have a clean record of what was created.

Create all 40 discount codes from my Excel 'Promo Codes' table for my Eventbrite event using the code, percent discount, and quantity limit columns.

SheetXAI reads each row, calls the Eventbrite discount creation API, and writes the resulting ID back before moving on.

What You Get

  • One discount code created per row in your workbook.
  • The Eventbrite-assigned discount ID written back into the corresponding row.
  • Any creation failure (duplicate code string, invalid percentage) flagged with an error note rather than silently dropped.
  • The workbook stays the source of truth — codes and their IDs are co-located in the same row.

What If the Data Is Not Quite Ready

Some codes need a fixed-dollar discount instead of a percentage

For each row in my 'Promo Codes' worksheet, create an Eventbrite discount code for event '333444555' — code string in A, discount type in B ('percent' or 'fixed'), discount amount in C, max uses in D — and write the returned discount ID into column E.

A handful of codes should be single-use only

Create discount codes in Eventbrite event '333444555' for each row in this worksheet: code string in A, percent off in B, max uses in C — but for any row where column D says 'single', set max uses to 1 regardless of column C — and write the returned ID into column E.

You need to verify that none of the code strings already exist before creating

Check each code string in column A against the existing discount codes for Eventbrite event '333444555', flag any duplicates in column E, then create codes for the remaining rows and write their returned IDs into column D.

Create all codes, validate, flag errors, and generate a rollout status summary in one shot

For each row in my 'Promo Codes' worksheet, create an Eventbrite discount code for event '333444555' using columns A through C, write the returned discount ID into column D, flag any errors in column E, and add a summary row at the bottom showing total codes created, total errors, and timestamp.

Build the creation log and the status report in the same prompt — so the sponsor team can see the rollout status the moment you're done.
