The file upload source enables you to upload CSV , TSV or JSON files containing emails, phone numbers, and other identifiers as well as their respective traits. In order for your first-party dataset to be properly ingested in your DCN, you must first ensure that it respects the specified format.
In order for your XLSX, CSV or TSV to be successfully ingested into your DCN, it must follow an established schema which is outlined within our section. Once your data has been properly organized and the columns follow the proper schema, you will be able to upload your file to your node.
Your JSON object must follow the standardized ID profile detailed on the section. Once the JSON object is formatted correctly, you will be able to upload it to your DCN, and all of your identifiers will be ingested alongside their scope and traits.
Once your file is ready, you can upload your file as a source by going to Data > Sources. Within the source selection page, select "File Upload" and proceed to name your source.
Every subsequent file that you upload, within a previously set up source, will replace the previous file and will be added to the source history. This can be used either as a reference or to check the status of the processing of your source.
optable-cli source create file --file=<path>
For example, if the path to your file is /my/path/file.dat, you can create an audience with it as follows:
optable-cli source create file "new file upload" --file=/my/path/file.dat
A JSON description of the newly created dataset audience is returned on success.

optable-cli source ingest file <id> <file>
