Import Glossaries and Terms

Go Up to Tutorials

Creating a term is very much like creating a new glossary. However, you can import a large number of Terms using the Import function.

You can load glossaries and terms from a CSV file into ER/Studio Team Server if you have a CSV file that follows the required format.

To load glossaries and terms from a CSV file:

Select Glossaries on the navigation menu.
Click Load Glossaries on the upper-right corner of the Glossaries page.
On the Load CSV File page that opens:
1. Click Browse and choose the target CSV file.
2. Click Load.

ER/Studio Team Server loads the glossaries and terms on the CSV file.

If you do not have a CSV file ready, you can create it. Paste the following into a simple text file and save as a .csv file. For example, Terms.csv.
