Figure 1 – Access via features tab<\/strong><\/p>\r\nCompleting the feature import consists of a number of phases:\r\n\r\nThe import popup is shown in conjunction with each phase below, and can be used to import a number of features from a Comma Separated Values (CSV) file into the selected release.\r\n

Phase 1 – Import file\"import<\/h4>\r\n

Figure 2 – Import features form (1)<\/strong><\/p>\r\nThe first phase is to select file you want to import and some details about the file, using the browse option of the import file<\/strong> field. You can also set the delimiter<\/strong> used in the file, whether the file contains a header row<\/strong> and whether you want Psoda to match the entries in the file with existing features and update those<\/strong>.\r\n

Phase 2 – Mapping<\/h4>\r\n

\"import<\/a>Figure 3 – Import features form (2)<\/strong><\/p>\r\nThe second phase is to use the drop-down lists available to select columns in the your chosen file to be mapped to the fields in Psoda. If the column headers match the field names then Psoda will automatically select those.\r\n

Phase 3 – Default values<\/h4>\r\nPhase 3 allows you to set default values for any fields you chose not to import from the file. You can also select the workflow to apply to the new features (if any).\r\n

Phase 4 – Importing…<\/h4>\r\nPhase 4 performs the actual import. You will see a progress bar that will automatically update. If you do not see automatic updates then you can force a refresh with the Refresh button. Once the import is complete the Refresh button will change to a Next button.\r\n

Phase 5 – Results<\/h4>\r\nFinally the results of the import is displayed. The results may include any errors that were encountered, a list of new features created from the file and a list of features that were updated.<\/div>\r\n
