Re: [Dhis2-users] Problem with XML data import

Good. If it was exported from an existing instance, then the UIDs and data element names must be checked to see that they tally.

As Jason correctly stated, you can show the full page of your data elements through the API on the new instance and then save it as xml after which you open it up using excel and then compare the UIDs with that on the CSV file you are trying import.

This will help.

Thanks, this was actually a CSV import, as XML does not work at all. Exported from an existing instance of DHIS2.

That's completely true. You can also do a CSV import instead, where it will be easier for you to see the data elements, their UIDS and what have you rather than the xml where you can have several typos kind of.

Also, was this data that you are trying to import into your instance exported from another instance or 3 party-application?

It can be hard to tell.We need much better information here as the log reports are pretty useless. 

You should probably gather all of your data element ids and check them one by one against whether they are available before attempting an import. This can be done through the API and scripted of course. Same for orgunits and catcombos.

As can be seen from the Import Summary below, I have around 38K values that don't get imported because the corresponding data element is not found.

Suggestions as to how I can find out WHICH data element(s) that is not linking?
