Prepare an Import File


There is no Import Report for the Space Type Hierarchy Import, therefore you will need to prepare the Import File. The Requirements for Space Type Hierarchy details what is expected in the columns.

You can prepare an import file from:

Remember to remove unnecessary cells and worksheets:

  • Remove additional tabs, even if they are blank. If you have more than one worksheet (tab) in your file, the file will not be read.
  • Remove all empty border columns and rows.
