Import from Export to Data Source

  1. Go to Data Sources from your site's main menu, and select ADD DATA SOURCE. Then choose Export to Data Source and select Add.

  2. (Optional) Give your data source a custom name. This custom name replaces the name of the data source on the Data Sources Overview page. Then, select Continue.

  3. Select the relevant bucket from the dropdown. If you don't see a list of existing buckets and haven't set one up in Exports, see Set up a bucket destination.

  4. To include skipped items in the import, toggle Allow skipped rows to On.

    • When creating the bucket, ensure you toggled this option to On in the relevant export(s).

  5. To skip importing data that came from invalid sites, toggle Clear invalid sites to On.

  6. To remove platform-generated attributes from the import, toggle Remove Passthru Columns to On.

  7. In Description (optional), add a description for your data source. It substitutes the data source name in the Overview tab in Data Sources.

  8. Select Save and select Import in the top-right corner of the page.
