Explanation

The 'Import from Excel' feature is the built-in Power Platform / Dataverse functionality specifically designed to load data from Excel spreadsheets into tables. It supports mapping Excel columns to Dataverse fields, handles data validation, and is the standard approach for bulk-loading existing data. The Pipeline Management Excel template (A) is a prebuilt template for sales pipeline tracking, not a data-loading tool. Adding contacts to a static worksheet (B) describes storing data in Excel, not importing it into Power Platform. The Import from Excel feature is the direct, purpose-built answer.
