SongSelect import and chord charts
MusiciansUpdated Sep 28, 2026
Import songs from CCLI SongSelect into your library by uploading ChordPro files (Premium) or PDF chord charts. No account connection required — just download from SongSelect and upload here.
- How to export from SongSelect — Sign in at songselect.ccli.com, find your song, and click the download icon. Choose “ChordPro” (Premium subscription) for the best quality, or “Chord Chart” (PDF) which is available to all subscribers.
- Uploading and importing — go to Plans → Songs and use “Import Songs.” Drag and drop your ChordPro (.pro, .chordpro) or PDF files. ChordPro files are parsed instantly; PDFs are converted automatically. You'll see a preview with title, key, tempo, CCLI metadata, and a chord-over-lyric preview before importing.
- CCLI compliance — Your church's CCLI number must be on file before importing (Settings → General). All songs are stored privately per church and your CCLI number is included in usage reports.
- Chord chart viewer — View imported songs with a full chord chart viewer featuring transposition to any key, chart types (Standard, Nashville, Solfege), 1 or 2 column layout, font scaling, and fit-to-page options. Charts display chords above lyrics and can be printed.
- Arrangements — Create multiple arrangements per song with different keys, chart types, and formatting. Set a default arrangement and link specific arrangements to service plan items.
- Supported formats — ChordPro (.pro, .chordpro, .cho) and PDF chord charts from SongSelect. You can upload multiple files at once.
