Hi All,

  I have a doubt, I do not figure out where the data is saved once imported a .json file using the following mask:

Every time i can read "Importing..." and " Successful", so I don't think it is an import problem but only a problem to figuring out where is saved the imported file.

Can someone kindly help me understand?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Marco,

If you are importing data from a json file (as opposed to entities from a XML file) you need to check the data radio box.  By default this is set to the entities radio box.  The data is then imported to particular datatable or stream etc. that it was exported from originally.

HTH,

My assumption is that your json file was created by doing an export from ThingWorx.  Is this valid?   (By default the json file will be named Data.json or it could also include a date time stamp if exported to ThingworxStorage). If so, what ever datatable and stream was selected during export is the same datatable or stream name for the import.  You can open the json file in notepad to view the details of the name, datashape etc.
