Can you describe what the issue is you’re experiencing?
I recently finished processing a sighting and am trying to download the results table. Usually, after finishing a sighting (matching all encounters within the sighting), I download the encounter table and then in excel, sort out all of the other encounters to extract the data from the one I’ve just worked on. The one that is not showing up in the results table is (in the Bulk Uploads) 2023 S06WildbookStandardFormat.xlsx https://www.flukebook.org/import.jsp?taskId=81321655-10d2-4c56-a2f9-690b28d75592 https://www.flukebook.org/import.jsp?taskId=3fb886df-0080-426c-802f-e72a8a63b6ae
Can you provide steps on how to reproduce what you’re experiencing?
I go to My Data/My Encounters, then Export and hit “Standard Format Export”
If this is a bulk import report, send the spreadsheet to services@wildme.org with the email subject line matching your bug report
Just to clarify, do you try an export only the encounters in the sighting you just worked on or do you export all encounters assigned to you and verify that the ones from the most recently completed sighting are there? This will help me figure out where the discrepancy is occurring.
Hi - we would prefer to only download the data table from a particular sighting (the last worked on), but Christy never found a way to do that, so we’ve just gone in and downloaded all of the data and then in Excel filtered out the one we were interested in. I’d love to know if there is a way to just download one “sighting” - bulk import.
Helpfully, we do plan on having the ability to export data from specific bulk imports in the next Wildbook release:
I tried a new encounter search for your encounters uploaded on 7/30/23 and then sorting my Individual ID to see if the encounters from this import appear and I don’t see them here in either the new search or the Classic search. I’ll need a little more time to dig into why these encounters aren’t being indexed in a search.
Thank for your patience! It looks like something was wrong with the time portion in the spreadsheets for these encounters which is preventing them from being indexed correctly in a search.
For the smaller import with only 7 encounters, you can update the time manually by editing the Date field and selecting the time from the drop-down menu. For the larger import, you’ll likely need to delete and re-import the spreadsheet after it’s been corrected with the time fixed since you may not want to manually update over 100 encounter times.
To clarify, in this case the issue was that this field should only include the hour, not the full date or the minutes. There are separate fields for hours and minutes (Encounter.hour and Encounter.minutes).
