logbook upload

templates (optional)

These templates allow you to import your divelog into the SCUBAzen format. This is not a necessary step since you can match the headers from your uploaded file to the SCUBAzen headers in-app. The advantage of using these templates is being able to pre-populate and organize your data before uploading into SCUBAzen, which will create a cleaner upload.

NOTE: the onboarding only allows for a logbook upload, however the dive type and equipment can be uploaded in settings.

field type definitions

This describes the type of data the app is expecting to ingest. A field type that does not match cannot be ingested, and it will cause an error. If the field type in your uploaded document does not match, simply change the format within your document and re-upload.

  • Double = number with decimal

  • Integer = whole number

  • String = text with letters and/or numbers

  • Boolean = TRUE or FALSE (must be capital letters)

tips and tricks

  • Dive numbers are automatically generated, it is best practice to make sure your dives are sorted by date and time before uploading, descending. The ID field in the template is for your own organization.

  • If you re-run the upload after dives are entered, it will not overwrite any data. It will add all uploaded dives to the collection as new dives.

  • Field types must match in order for upload to work

  • A header cannot be matched more than once

  • Any fields left blank will have default values added
