<p><b>New page</b></p><div>This document provides detailed instructions for configuring a spreadsheet as a data source in FojiSoft, based on the interface elements shown in the provided image.<br />
----<br />
<br />
== '''1. Configuring the Data Source''' ==<br />
<br />
* '''Name''': Enter a descriptive name for your data source. <br />
* '''Folders''': Optionally, assign the data source to a specific folder or category to help organize your resources. This is useful for grouping similar data sources.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
== '''2. Connection Settings''' ==<br />
<br />
* '''Connection''': Select the appropriate connection where the spreadsheet data will be stored. This typically links the spreadsheet data to a database table or a file storage system. If the dropdown is empty, ensure you’ve set up a valid connection in FojiSoft’s global settings.<br />
* '''Target Table''': Specify the target table in the database where the spreadsheet data will be imported. This is a required field.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
== '''3. File Settings''' ==<br />
<br />
* '''File''': Upload or select the spreadsheet file from the available file repository. This step is essential as the platform needs the file to extract data.<br />
* '''Sheet''': Select the specific sheet within the spreadsheet from which data will be imported. This option ensures only relevant data from the correct sheet is processed.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
== '''4. Mode''' ==<br />
<br />
* '''Replace Data in Table''': This dropdown specifies how data should be updated in the target table. The options include:<br />
** '''Replace Data in Table''': Clears existing data in the table before importing the spreadsheet data.<br />
** '''Append Data to Table''': Adds the spreadsheet data to the existing data in the table without overwriting.<br />
** '''Update Data in Table''': Updates existing records in the table based on the spreadsheet data.<br />
<br />
Choose the mode based on your update requirements.<br />
----<br />
<br />
== '''5. Scan Interval''' ==<br />
<br />
* '''Scan Interval''': Define how frequently the spreadsheet data is scanned and updated in the target table. The default interval is <code>15 minutes</code>. Adjust this interval according to how often your spreadsheet data is updated.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
== '''6. Activating the Data Source''' ==<br />
<br />
* '''Enabled Toggle''': Toggle the "Enabled" switch to activate the data source. Once activated, the system will start scanning and importing data based on the configured settings and scan interval.<br />
* '''Save Configuration''': After completing the setup, click the '''Create''' button (located at the top right of the interface) to save the configuration.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
== '''Error Troubleshooting''' ==<br />
<br />
* '''Missing Connection''': If the "Connection" field is empty, ensure a valid connection is configured in FojiSoft’s settings.<br />
* '''Invalid File or Sheet''': Ensure the uploaded file is in a supported format (e.g., <code>.xls</code>, <code>.xlsx</code>, <code>.csv</code>) and the selected sheet exists within the file.<br />
* '''Permission Errors''': Verify that you have appropriate permissions to access the target table and upload files.<br />
<br />
