Import files

The import blade creates a named batch and uploads one or more source files.

Supported files

RebelCore supports:

• Excel workbooks (.xlsx).
• Comma-separated value files (.csv).

Use the original file structure where possible. Password-protected, damaged, or unsupported files cannot be imported.

Upload a new batch

1. Open Datasets under Workspace.
2. Click the + button in the lower-right corner.
3. Enter a descriptive Batch Name.
4. Click ADD FILES.
5. Select one or more Excel or CSV files.
6. Review the filename, size, and pending status.
7. Click Upload.

The Upload button remains unavailable until a batch name and at least one file are present.

After a successful upload, the blade closes and the dataset appears in the table. Expand the row to review its files and current status.

Continue an existing batch

Where the page offers the import action for an existing batch:

1. Open the batch.
2. Add the additional files.
3. Confirm that you are not uploading a duplicate.
4. Click Upload.

Keep related files in the same batch only when they belong to the same module and should be curated together.

Prepare files for a reliable import

• Use one clear header row.
• Give every column a meaningful, unique name.
• Keep the same data type down each column where practical.
• Remove blank trailing rows and columns.
• Use consistent date and number formats.
• Avoid merged cells in tabular data.
• Keep reference notes outside the main table.

If an upload fails

Check:

• The file is Excel or CSV.
• The file opens successfully on your computer.
• Your network connection remained available.
• The same file was not already uploaded to the batch.
• Your role still allows dataset imports.

Retry the affected upload. If it continues to fail, contact support with the dataset batch name, filename, approximate time, and the displayed error.

Next step

Wait for the dataset status to become Created, then select CREATE MODULE and continue to Create your dataset.
