Bulk Upload Excel data to Dataverse

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 13

Hi,

 

I'm looking for a solution approach / best design for the below requirement.

 

Using Model driven app , need to upload bulk excel  data's  and store it in data verse.

e.g 100 excel files with size ranging between 10 to15 mb  per day.

 

I think for extracting  the data from excel  first we need to convert the excel format to table(probably we can achieve with office script recording in Excel online) . Please guide for any better approach

 

Appreciate if you could guide me some best options for designing this architecture.

 

Thanks

    Hello @KishoreJ,

     

    Yes we can use but there also we need some standard excel so that we can create flow accordingly and we need to keep Excel in Onedrive or SharePoint too.

    Hi @rampprakash 

     

    Thanks for the direction, Appreciate your suggestion.

     

    One more  solution we can think for this scenario i.e. Using PowerAutomate convert the excel(user format) to csv , then import the csv to dataverse with ease.

     

    Any suggestions please feel free..

    Thanks

    Hello @KishoreJ,

     

    As per OOB Behavior there is no Standard way to achieve the same. While importing we can make Data Map for the same. My Suggestion provide the standard format to the User so that we can upload easily.

    Hi @rampprakash 

     

    Steps which you have mentioned is kind of one time process especially for dataflows into data verse from excel.

    But here the requirement is end user will upload the excel in their own standard format in the  Model driven app screen, behind the scene it  should extract the data from the excel and load it into the data verse.

    Thanks
