Importing Logs

Back to 'General FAQs' articles

You can import your pre made logs into tanooki using the import feature within Dailies or Review.

Please ensure your file is a .csv format (comma-separated values), structured as follows:
In,Out,Duration,Text,Speaker,Status

The timecode fields must be in the following format-
HH:MM:SS.mss (example 15:51:33:000 – hours, minutes, seconds, milliseconds)

The mandatory column fields to complete are “In” and “Text”.  The others are optional but the column headers must exist.

The “Speaker” column is optional, and if filled in will be put at the beginning of the log entry.

The contents of the “Text” column must always be in double quotes, which then allows punctuation to exist in the text without confusing the comma separation of the file.

An example file with just one row would look like:
In,Out,Duration,Text,Speaker,Status
15:51:33.500,,,”This is my log text example”,Fred Bloggs,


Example file for download-
