How to Upload Your Dataset

Uploading Your Dataset in ProcessMind

You can upload your data from several places in the application. No matter where you start, all data uploads end up in the same location for easy access.

You can upload your data from:

  • The New Process screen (for example, the “Mine from Data” option)
  • The Data List menu by selecting + Add New Dataset
  • Inside a Process Model under the Data tab

All upload dialogs follow the same process, which is explained below.

Overview

The Upload New Data screen lets you quickly upload datasets in various file formats  such as CSV, TSV, TXT, XLS, XLSX, and XLSB. This guide will walk you through each step for a smooth upload experience. For more details on supported formats and data structure, see the data section .

Step-by-Step Instructions


Step 1: Prepare Your Data

  • Make sure your dataset is saved in a supported file format .
  • Check that your file is well-structured and clean for the best results in ProcessMind.

Step 2: Upload Your Dataset

  • Drag and Drop:
    • Drag your dataset file from your device and drop it into the large “Upload Dataset” box.
  • Manual File Selection:
    • Click inside the “Upload Dataset” box or on the upload icon. A file dialog will open so you can browse and select your dataset.

Step 3: Confirmation and Processing

Processing Data

  • After uploading, ProcessMind will automatically start processing your data. You will see feedback on the processing status. You do not need to wait for processing to finish—you can continue with other tasks and will receive a notification when your dataset is ready.
  • If your data is successfully uploaded, you will be directed to the next screen for further configuration or analysis.

Step 4: Verify Your Data

Dataset Process Mining

Once the data is loaded, you can fine-tune the mapping if ProcessMind did not automatically match the correct fields. For more details on manual data setup, see the data configuration guide.

Troubleshooting Upload Issues

  • If the file format is unsupported or there is a problem with the file, you will see an error message.
  • Make sure the file is saved in an accepted format.
  • If the issue persists, check for formatting errors (such as missing headers or incorrect data types).
  • For ongoing issues, contact ProcessMind support for help.
