HD4DP v2 CSV Upload

Introduction

This page details the CSV Upload functionality in HD4DP v2.0, designed for bulk record uploads. This feature facilitates the submission of data by making use of CSV files, where each row in the file corresponds to a single record. Hence, multiple records can be included in a single CSV for efficient data submission.

Currently, there is no user interface in HD4DP v2.0 for uploading csv files. If a data provider wants to upload a csv file, it needs to be dropped at a specific location. The file will be picked up and processed periodically. The file should be “final”, meaning that no application is writing to them. The pick-up location will be identical for all registries.

Additionally, pre-registry processing relies on adherence to a specific naming convention for the CSV files.
