A menu will display when you click New
from the Data
Import list window if your implementation has been set up to use more
than local files as your source of data for imports. Only options applicable
to your environment will display in the menu. If your environment is set
up for local imports only, this menu will not display and you will be
taken directly to an Open window to choose a local import file.
If you see a menu with choices, choose from the available options to proceed with your import. Click below to see a how-to topic about using these different import source types.
Local File - to import data from an Excel, CSV, or Text file.
Azure Blob Container, Azure File Share, or Azure SQL Database - to import from one of those cloud sources.
SQL Server Database - to import from a table in a SQL Server database.
