Auto import

Auto import lets the server pick up a result CSV automatically, so results flow into My Schedule without anyone uploading a file by hand. It is configured per project on the Project Settings page, in the Auto Import section.

Setting up​

  1. Open Project Settings and go to the Auto Import section.
  2. Enter the File Path of the result CSV.
  3. Choose an Import Method (see below).
  4. Turn on the Auto Import toggle. The toggle stays disabled until the configuration is complete.
warning

The file path is a location on the machine that runs the My Schedule server, not the device you have open in your browser. Make sure the CSV is placed on the server machine at the path you enter.

The CSV must use the same format as manual import — UTF-8 (with BOM). A Download example CSV link is available in this section as well.

Import methods​

Automatically monitor the changes and import : The server watches the file and re-imports it whenever its contents change. Use this when another system keeps rewriting the same CSV as new results come in.

Use scheduled import : The server imports the file on a weekly schedule. Choose the Day of Week (Every) (one or more of Monday–Sunday) and the Time (HH:MM) at which the import should run.
