# Example

## Importing a CSV file using DataImporter

The following example demonstrates how the **Data Importer** module can be used to import data from a CSV file.

- **Step 1:** Add a new module in the “Modules” section, choose a name, and select “DataImporter” as the “Module type”.

- **Step 2:** Configure the **Logger** and **API** settings for the **Data Importer** module. In this example, the default configuration is left unedited since, in most cases, this is a valid configuration.
- **Step 3:** Add a new **Agent** in the “Model” section and choose a name for it.

- **Step 4:** Configure the **Agent** (Enabled, Scan rate, Path, Parser, etc.) and save the changes. In this example, data will be imported from a CSV file located in the folder for this **Data Importer** instance (C:\Program Files (x86)\N3uron\data\DataImporter\input).

- **Step 5:** Add a new **Tag** in the **Model** section and choose a name for it.

- **Step 6:** Configure the Tag (Filename, Period, Mode, Input Tag Group, etc.). In this example, the “CURRENT” tag will be imported from a CSV file containing the dataset for an electrical meter.

- **Step 7:** Place the CSV file for importing within the input folder for this **Data Importer** instance.

In this example, the following data have been used:

```none
