Importing via Import/Export

Note: Starting September 1, 2024, we’re streamlining our Staging boundaries to more effectively separate staging data from workspace and system data. With this change, you will no longer be able to write to or access data outside of the defined staging area. Folders that will remain within the Staging area: ARM, ProcessingSource, StructuredData, and TenantVM. Folders that will be removed: FTA, Temp, Export, and dtSearch, in addition to any other folders that you manually created. Refer to the Staging Area topic and Staging Area FAQ in Community for more details.

You can use Import/Export to import unprocessed raw native files, document load files, image load files, production load files, and Relativity Dynamic Objects. Refer to Import/Export load file specifications and Data upload size limitation for more information regarding load files. Also see General recommendations for structured data import and export jobs.

Note: After documents are imported using Import/Export, you can automate creating a dtSearch index or run a search terms report with those documents using Automated Workflows. To learn more, visit Automated Workflows.

• Document load file import—use this workflow to import load files containing document metadata, native files, or extracted text into Relativity.
• Image load file import—use this workflow to import load files containing images into Relativity.
• Production load file import—use this workflow to import load files containing productions into Relativity.
• Relativity Dynamic Object load file import—use this workflow to import dynamic object (RDO) data into Relativity.
• Unstructured data workflow with Processing—use this workflow to import raw (unprocessed) native files that require processing in Relativity.
