Import each document in a directory as separate data source

[twagner]

Dear Xcalar,

I see that Xcalar Design 1.3.1's can create multiple data sources from one import, but I can't do it. I've selected a directory of files to import, but cannot select to import as multiple datasets.

How do I import my directory of files?

Thanks,
Teresa

Hi @twagner,

No problem, you must have selected the directory containing the files and added it to the import. Instead, add the files, as follows:

1. Double-click on the directory in XD's Browse Data Source interface or use the Browse Data Source search field to find all of the files in question.
2. To add the files to your import, click on the first data source file in the search results, then shift-click on the last file, and click any file's checkbox.
   Now, the Multiple Datasets option will be available.
3. Click NEXT.

Any questions?

Mark

Worked like a charm. Thanks Mark.
