Possible to make a script to easily manually enter levels every day?

Hi, every day I receive a list of price levels that I want to plot. I go on the chart and manually have to edit each line which takes a long time. I'm wondering if there's any way to make this process quicker with thinkscript. Is it possible to import an excel sheet of price levels to plot, or make a pop up box to just quickly enter the values each day? Hopefully I can figure out the details but I just want to know if it's possible. Thanks for any help

if you want lines on just a few stocks, this could work

# Option levels
input priceLevel1 = 1.1000; # Level 1 price
input priceLevel2 = 1.1200; # Level 2 price
input priceLevel3 = 1.1400; # Price of level 3

# If you want to add more levels, keep adding input variables

# Drawing horizontal lines
plot level1 = priceLevel1;
plot level2 = priceLevel2;
plot level3 = priceLevel3;

# Customize the appearance of the chart
level1.SetDefaultColor(Color.GREEN);
level1.SetLineWeight(2);

level2.SetDefaultColor(Color.ORANGE);
level2.SetLineWeight(2);

level3.SetDefaultColor(Color.RED);
level3.SetLineWeight(2);
