# POST /api/v1/dashboards/models/import

> Import a reference workbook as a model plan

- **Tag:** dashboards
- **Operation ID:** `import_model_workbook_api_v1_dashboards_models_import_post`

## Description

Parse an uploaded .xlsx into a draft model and return it for review. **Nothing is persisted** — the importer cannot know which ledgers feed the workbook's data rows, and guessing would produce a model that renders a clean grid of wrong numbers. The response carries a `confidence` score, the sheets skipped as raw data exports, and the formulas that could not be translated, so the caller can resolve them before calling `/models/build`.

## Authentication

Bearer token in `Authorization` header.
Required header: `x-business-id: <business uuid>`.
