As I can understand, you want to have some data to pre-populate your form. Please note that this can be done, but importing the data from a spreadsheet.
Please try with the Spreadsheet to form widget: https://widgets.jotform.com/widget/spreadsheet_to_form

The best way to use is to follow this guide: https://www.jotform.com/help/442-How-to-Use-the-Spreadsheet-to-Form-Widget
You have to have an Excel sheet that will have the same fields like in your form. Also, the widget will work only with these fields:
So address field will not work.
What are the fields you want to prefill from the Excel sheet? And I assume you're working on this form: http://www.jotform.us/form/72648447984171?
We'll wait for your response.
Thank you!
