Bulk Import Metadata

You can also upload descriptions in bulk in a few clicks. It is especially useful when you want to import from other external sources (sheets, catalogs).
To do so, go to Data Catalog and using the search bar or filters, narrow down to the assets you want to edit. Then, click the three-dot menu and click Import.

You can then download one CSV file:

  • Catalog.csv is a pre-filled CSV
  • Template.csv is an empty file

Once you have edited your descriptions on a spreadsheet tool, upload the CSV file back to Sifflet and click Apply.

🚧

Tab-delimited .csv format

Note that you need to use tab delimiters and save the file as a CSV file. You can refer to the following example:

This csv file contains edits for 15 fields in one table

This CSV file contains edits for 15 fields in one table
