How to edit material libraries outside Revit 2016

Hello everyone! We are trying to import a large number of materials into a new material library. It´s too much to do it by hand. Is there any possibility to import an excel file? How would it need to be organised in order to create a functioning library? We at least need to create the materials with the right material names. Best regards, Sarah

The only way I've found to import a lot of data from excel is through BIMLink (or something similar). You can export the properties of an existing material to excel to understand how it is stored. Then add your materials in the correct columns.
