Data
Overview
Loading data into a davinci environment is a simple process. However, the process is slightly different
depending on whether the environment is a
davinci
workspace
or a davinci
page.
Loading Data into a Workspace
There are multiple ways to load data into a workspace.
- Data from the hard drive, or from a URL can be loaded using the
Data app.
- Data can be scripted and added to the workspace through the
Javascript app
Loading Data into a Page
- Data from the hard drive, or from a URL can be loaded using the
Data Tololbox.
- Data can be scripted and added to the workspace through the
scripting toolbox
Data Formats
Data can be encoded in various formats. When you add data to a page, the page needs to know the format of the data. Either you can provide this
information, or if you do not tell the page what type of dtata it is, the page will use the extension (last letters of the file name after the
period, such as "txt" or "json") to guess what the data format is.
Some of the formats above indicate that the first line of the data is a header line. For example, there is a csv format and an hcsv format. Most
davinci tools allow you to specify that the format is csv while also indicating that there is a header line.
