iNZight Lite FAQ: Importing Data

Having trouble importing your data into iNZight? We might have a solution for you.

Note: iNZight expects spreadsheet-like data in which the first row of cells contains the names of variables and everything in the column beneath a variable name is data recorded on that variable.

Lite disconnects when I load data on a mac

If you try to import a dataset that iNZight Lite cannot read, it may disconnect. A common issue among macOS users is trying to import a .numbers file instead of a .csv. iNZight cannot read .numbers files, so you must import the .csv.

Within macOS Numbers, you can save/export the file as a CSV file by

  1. opening the File menu > Export to > CSV,
  2. open Advanced Options and be sure to check UTF-8 as the Text Encoding,
  3. click Next, and choose a location to save the file,
  4. finally, click Export.
