Importing IOF XML 3.0
Orion reads the IOF XML 3.0 standard and detects the document type automatically — you don't have to say whether you're uploading courses, a start list or results.
How to import
- Open the event's Imports section.
- Choose the stage the file belongs to.
- Upload the XML file.
After the import you get a summary of how many records were created or updated.
Supported documents
- CourseData — courses and controls.
- StartList — start list.
- ResultList — results with split times.
Condes
Condes exports are KMZ archives rather than IOF XML, and go through the separate Condes upload field. One such file creates the map, the courses and the graphical overlays in a single step.
If an import fails
The error message shows what couldn't be read. The most common causes are a file in IOF XML 2.x rather than 3.0, and competitors who can't be matched to a group in the event.
