JSON import and export

Utilizing ARCtrl, Swate supports multiple different import and export formats for JSON.

Export

Section titled Export

In order to export your file, click on “File Export” () in the Sidebar. Here you can select between different official JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) formats. JSON is a lightweight format for storing and exchanging formats between different systems.

After selecting your desired format you export your file by clicking on the “Download” button. A word of warning here, in Excel you have to create a top level metadata sheet before you can export it.

Import

Section titled Import

In order to import a file, click on “File Import” () in the Sidebar. For importing a filled Swate table, select the same JSON format that was used for the export. Additionally, you also have to select the fitting ISA file type that was used for the export. Next, you upload your file and select your desired import options, e.g. annotate to existing table, import with values and so on.
