Use Import & Export only in the inventory that should receive or provide the records.
Permissions and membership #
Imports require editing access. Normal exports require an active membership. After a membership lapses, the 7-Day Export Pass provides only CSV, JSON, and one portable-backup download; it does not reopen normal TIM browsing or editing.
Before importing #
- Confirm the active inventory.
- Keep an unchanged copy of the source file.
- Check the upload limits shown by TIM.
- Preview the file.
- Review the detected columns, warnings, duplicates, and proposed actions.
- Apply the import only when the preview is correct.
File limits #
Allowed types, maximum file size, daily upload count, daily upload size, and total storage depend on the account status and assigned access. The values shown in TIM are authoritative for the signed-in person.
If a file is rejected #
Confirm the extension, size, and account status. Do not rename an unrelated file merely to give it an allowed extension.
