DHIS2 Data Import

[Sunali (Sunali Bandara)]

Hi,
I have been trying to work with data import/export option on dhis2 and I did import some json files but it’s bit confusing with data storing and mapping process. I’m having few questions related to that:

1. Where in DHIS2 is the data stored?

2. How can I see the data structure?

3. When importing data how can I ensure that the structure of the imported data matches that of the local stored data within DHIS2?

4. ‘User John Traore [xE7jOejl9FI] (User) does not have read access for object [ner6Eox1IIp] (TrackedEntityAttribute)’ Any idea on reason for this error?

If i can get any other relevant information or tips for a successful data import it would be a great help.

Hello @Sunali

For the first 3 questions you can read the following topic

Where is the data submitted in a form saved in the database?

I am new to DHIS2. I am creating an app that accept form data. I will like to understand where the data that is submitted in a form is saved in the database as well as the api I need to call.

For the fourth one check out the answer of @adulojusm in the following topic

AEFI_TRACKER_V1_DHIS2 import error: User `admin admin [M5zQapPyTZI] (User)` does not have read access for object [sB1IHYu2xQT] (TrackedEntityAttribute)

Make sure that your user/usergroup has sharing access to TrackedEntityAttribute sB1IHYu2xQT. Go to Track Entity Attribute/Type and set the sharing permission to your user/usergroup. The error is simply saying the .json downloaded is not shared with your users admin admin with uuid (M5zQapPyTZI).

If you have any question or need more information do not hesitate.

Hello @didate Thank you for responding to my question. It was really helpful to understand the concept.
Is there any sample metadata json files that i can try out with metadata import in the demo application?
Thank you.
