Hi Christina

It is possible to Bulk add Goals (Hierarchies > Goals > Manage goals > Bulk actions > Add) to the Hierarchy using a file with goal names  with the structure below 

Provide a list of names (one per line) to create multiple items at the same time. You can use spaces before the item names to indicate the parent-child relationships - every two spaces you include before the name indicates one level in the hierarchy.

You must ensure that the structure you create is valid, which means every item must either be at the top level (no indentation) or be below an existing item at the level above. For example, you cannot create a level 3 item unless there is already a level 2 item above it.

Note that this bulk add functionality is for use if you want to create simple items, in the same framework, with the same type, and with no additional information such as ID Numbers and Shortnames.

HR Import doesn't have the goal hierarchy included 

There is an existing feature TL-17479 to import goals from a csv source.
