Loading data using DataUploader

With DataUploader you can upload data files up to 5TB each directly into a Process Mining process app. Loading data using DataUploader is more stable than loading data using the Upload data option in Process Mining, also for smaller data files. If the upload using DataUploader fails, for example, due to an unstable connection, DataUploader will retry the upload up to 4 times.

Note:

Always make sure that the data is in the required format for the app template used for the process app. Refer to App Templates.
