I am diving into my first demo project by configuring and implementing Salesforce for a mock client. I've hit a snag with mass adding new users with data loader and the required ProfileID.
I understand that users are assigned a 15-character unique ID upon user creation. I'm interested in the case where an org might require dozens of new users. Does every user need to be set up manually before accounts can be modified using data loader? I'm also thinking about a scenario where I botch something in my playground and need to set up a totally new org. Is there a quick way of adding my example users?
Long story short: can one set up new users for the first time via data loader?
I appreciate your help,

Thank you, Jake and Piyush. The article you both linked to was very helpful. The YouTube video tackled the exact situation of getting ProfileIDs via URL.
