Protect many files at once with one plan
A folder of monthly exports needs the same protection in every file. Apply one saved plan to the whole set. DataAttendant checks each file, protects the files that match, and holds back any file that needs a decision.
What a batch does with each file
| File | What DataAttendant finds | Result |
|---|---|---|
| sales-january.csv | The same columns as the plan | Protected |
| sales-february.csv | The same columns as the plan | Protected |
| sales-march.xlsx | One column was renamed | Waits for your review |
| notes.json | A JSON file, and the plan was made for spreadsheets | Not protected with this plan |
How to do it
Save a plan from one file
Protect one file of the set, then save your choices as a plan.
Apply a plan to multiple data files
Choose the plan and add the files.
Check the files
Each file is compared with the plan. You acknowledge the plan's warnings once.
Protect and download
Files are protected one after the other, and you can cancel the batch or one file. You receive one archive with the copies and a summary. Each file's record is kept in History.
What to know
- Files are protected one after the other, not at the same time.
- Each file has a size limit. CSV, TSV, text, JSON and JSON Lines files can be up to 50 MB. Excel and XML files can be up to 25 MB.
- By default, the same customer gets the same code in every file for the same recipient, in the same browser.
- Restoring works only in the browser that holds your protection keys.
