This is a useful function for bulk data upload. The Uploader can be used in both Ecosystem plans and Action plans.

To upload data for an OAI:

  • Open a new Excel spreadsheet or Google sheet or use the link above for a template.
  • Create separate files for Outcomes, Actions and Indicators, with three columns in each.
  • Column A should include the name of your Outcome/Action/Indicator.
  • Column B should include a short sentence or phrase detailing your Outcome/Action/Indicator.
  • Column C should include the category of the relevant lens.

Actions and Indicators have an extra column for Additional Information.

  • Column D should include any relevant additional information of your Action or Indicator.

Tip: Column A should always be filled but Columns B, C or D can be left blank.

Tip: You can upload up to 50 cells at a time.

To upload data for a Network Node: (please see the Network Node page for more information about Network Nodes)

  • Open a new Excel spreadsheet or Google sheet.

For OAIs and Network Nodes:

When your spreadsheet is complete:

  • Save as a .csv file.
  • In Table View on a plan, Click on the Outcome, Action, Indicator, or Network Node tab depending on which file you are uploading.
  • Click on Import from File and follow the instructions in the Import OAIs from CSV file window.
  • Upload your .csv file, click Import.

Your imported Outcomes / Actions / Indicators / Network Nodes will now appear in Table view.

Tip: Upload your Outcomes first, then link them together. Followed by uploading and linking your Actions. Finally, upload and link your Indicators/Network Nodes.

Go to Mindmap View to Link your Outcomes, Actions, Indicators, and Network Nodes together.
