Data Importing and Queuing

The most powerful feature of the portal is the ability to queue data for importing into OpenGround CloudvProfessional.

This is particularly useful as the portal will validate the file for any errors which would prevent a full import, providing real time feedback to the user.

The ability to queue requires a specific user role which is added to a user’s security group. (system admins will do this) The role is called Queue Imports (see image below).

Once this role is added, any user can queue imports via the portal. To initial an import queue, select the project you want to import into and select Upload Data.

Select the file format, any appropriate mapping and put a comment (mandatory). After entering a comment press start upload.

The file should process and upload. When completed you will be greeted with one of three Results.

• Not Successful – File contains errors so cannot import
• Successful but with warnings – The file has uploaded however there are some warnings that will be displayed on the page for review
• File uploaded with no warning – The file has been uploaded with no warnings Examples below.

After the data has been queued, you can press finish or start another upload.

The File is ready to be imported into OpenGround Cloud Professional. To import the file, navigate to Manage Imports in OpenGround Cloud Professional. The files will be displayed in the dialog window, Press import to start the import process or download source data to download the file.
