Creating DNG attributes in bulk
![]() I have a customer who is trying to efficiently import requirement data into DNG. Right now, he's having to create a long list of attributes for each one of the column headers in his CSV/XLS prior to the ingest. He mentions that creating attributes during the ingest process was a capability in DOORS classic. I'm pretty certain that there is no way to do this in DNG for security reasons I'm sure; however I was curious if there was a way to create attributes in bulk or is your only option the web interface? |

My thought is that Excel has many input processing tools including embedded Basic programming.
Also many screen capture/parsing tools allow programming that could output CSV; Then the CSV could be filtered and inspected in Excel before importing, or just import from CSV.
I like the Excel round trip; export; remove extraneous export record data and modified columns; then inspect/sort and fix, even add an attribute column, and then reimport using ID matching to update old data with new/fixed attributes.
You do have the issue of embedded "comma"s to deal with, but quoting them helps
