Checking the Status of File Import
You can import data from an Excel or CSV file to an app.
On the "Imported Files" screen, you can check the status of the Import from File operations that you performed.
The "Imported Files" screen lets you check the following:
- The progress of each of your Import from File operations
- Errors in your file for import (If your Import from File operation failed)
The errors are indicated in error messages displayed on the "Imported Files" screen.
Accessing the "Imported Files" Screen
To show the "Imported Files" screen, perform one of the following actions.
-
Click a link in the message that is displayed at the top of the View while your file is being imported or when your file import action failed.
-
Click the Settings icon (the gear-shaped icon at the top of Kintone), then select Imported Files.
Checking the Status on the "Imported Files" Screen
The "Imported Files" screen shows the current statuses or execution results of the file import actions you performed, and lists those data from the newest one to the oldest one based on the date and time in the Submitted column.
The screen refreshes automatically to update the display.
Imported files disappear from the screen after three days from the date and time specified in the "Submitted" column. Also, when an app is deleted, files imported into the deleted app disappear from the screen.
Item | Description |
---|---|
Submitted | Shows the data and time when the import file was registered. |
Completed | Shows the data and time when the file import process was completed. When the current status is still "Waiting" or "In Progress", no data is displayed in this column. |
App | Shows the name of the app to which you imported data from a file. When you click the link of the app name, the view of the app is displayed in list format. However, if you do not have permissions to view/add records for the app, "(No permission)" is displayed instead. |
File | Shows the name of the file from which you import data to an app. |
Status | Shows one of the five file import statuses as below.
|
Progress | Shows a message based on the current status.
|
When the status is still "Waiting" or "Importing", you can cancel the file import process. However, there might be some cases where the cancel does not work depending on the timing when you perform the action, such as when the file import action has already been completed.
When you cancel the file import process, the app data is restored to the previous state before the import action was started.
