Import and export

Move data in and out of Orkyo — CSV and JSON imports, exports per page, and the PDF Gantt of the schedule.

Published

The top bar’s Import and Export buttons are context-aware: they act on whatever page you have open. On a page with nothing to move, they read “Import not available” / “Export not available”.

What moves, where

Page Export Import
Utilization (Gantt Chart) PDF —
Spaces CSV CSV
Requests CSV CSV
Conflicts CSV —
Criteria CSV, JSON CSV, JSON
Sites CSV, JSON CSV, JSON
Request Templates CSV, JSON CSV, JSON
Users CSV, JSON CSV, JSON

Each dialog describes its scope in place — e.g. Spaces: “Export or import the list of spaces with their properties and capabilities”; Conflicts: “Export the current list of conflicts (import not available)”.

Exporting

  1. Open the page whose data you want, choose Export.
  2. Pick the Format and adjust the File name.
  3. Export downloads the file.

The Utilization export is special: it produces “a PDF visualization of the Gantt chart showing all scheduled requests” — scoped to the current view, so set your scale, period, and site before exporting. Ideal for shift handovers and planning meetings.

Importing

  1. Open the matching page, choose Import.
  2. Pick the Format, then Browse to select the file.
  3. Import validates before applying: “The import will validate data before applying changes. Existing items with matching IDs will be updated.”

That last sentence is the important one — import is an upsert. Rows with matching IDs update existing records; rows without create new ones. To bulk-edit, export first, modify the file, and re-import it.

Practical notes

  • Round-trip for structure. The most reliable way to learn the expected columns is to export first — the export format is the import format.
  • Import reference data early. Loading criteria, sites, and templates from files is the fastest path through initial setup — see Import your existing data.
  • Presets are the bigger hammer. For whole-tenant configuration (criteria + groups + templates in one file), use Presets instead of per-page imports.
