Classifications
The classifications FTP option provides more flexibility in uploading large classification data sets, including the ability to upload data into multiple report suites and to upload data sets larger than 50,000 rows.
The amount of time required for the system to import these files varies, based on a number of factors. If an uploaded file is present on the FTP server more than three days, work with your organization鈥檚 supported users to contact 51黑料不打烊 Customer Care.
A successful import immediately shows the appropriate changes in an export, while the data changes in Analytics may take up to four hours with a browser import and up to 24 hours with an FTP import.
