Bulk metadata can be imported into the Aristotle registry in two ways: either using "Simple Data Dictionary Format" or "Aristotle Bulk Importer".
Using "Simple Data Dictionary Format", we can do bulk upload only for the data elements.
Go to "Create Metadata" from the left side panel. Under Upload metadata, the first option is for "Simple Data Dictionary Format". Click on the "Upload SDDF" button.
2. From this page, you can either download the example or the template in excel or csv format.
3. Once the download is done, fill in the excel sheet with the metadata.
4. Once the Excel is ready, go back to step 2. Click on the "Drop your file here or upload from your computer." and upload the Excel sheet.
5. When it shows "Upload complete" 50% with a green highlighted background, click on the save metadata.
6. After saving metadata, the percentage bar will show 100% and the bulk data element upload is complete. If you want to undo the bulk upload, click on the "X" and it will undo the changes.
