Altus Demo Data Loader

The Altus Demo Data Loader can be used by to upload demo data into an Altus system.

Both consultants and clients can use this feature. To access the demo data loader feature you must have access to the client’s Altus environment in the Sensei Hub

For consultants

1. Log into the Partner Admin section of the Sensei Hub.
2. Click the Altus button for the client’s environment.
3. Click the Edit button under the Operations menu, for the URL you'd like to load the demo data into.

For clients

1. Log into the Altus section of the Sensei Hub.
2. Click the Edit button under the Operations menu, for the URL you'd like to load the demo data into.

You will now see the new Demo Data item under the Operations menu.

When you click the Demo Data button you are given the option to select a date from the date picker and click Load or click Unload.

• Date picker: this field determines the dates that this data will be loaded with. The demo data already loads data that is 3 months old, so you do not need to back-date this field unless you would like the data to be older than 3 months old. This field will automatically default to today’s date, but you can select a date in the past or future.
• Load: once you have selected a date, or left the default date, click Load to begin the demo data load process.
• Unload: if you would like to remove demo data that was previously loaded into the environment click Unload to begin the demo data unload process. Note: this will only remove demo data based on the current demo data for your release ring, if the demo data is upgraded where some items have been removed it will miss these during demo data unload and they will require manual removal.
  
  

When you have clicked Load or Unload the Altus Demo Data Deployment Status screen will show. This screen shows you the progress of the data Load or Unload process.

As the process runs the progress field will display the current progress.

Note

This screen doesn’t refresh automatically, so you will need to manually refresh the screen to see the latest progress value.

Note

The Load and Unload processes each take approximately 15 minutes to run.

Progress Statuses:

• Running: the process has begun and is underway.
• Demo Data Loading/Unloading: the data is being loaded.
• Success: the process has finished without any major errors.
• demoDataLoadException: errors have occurred with the Load/Unload process.
• demoDataLoadActivityException: errors have occurred with the Load/Unload process.

Once the process is complete you will see a Demo Data file log in the Deployed section of the screen.

• If there is a green tick next to the Demo Data file the Load/Unload has completed successfully.
• If there as a red lightning bolt next to the Demo Data file the Load/Unload has completed but with errors.

To see the full details of this Load/Unload process, please review this log file.

If the Load/Unload was not successful, no log file will be made available on the screen. If this happens you will need to contact the Altus Product Development team to review the issue.

A history of the Load/Unload process is recorded for the environment.

Note

If you open this screen and the Load and Unload buttons are greyed out, this is because the system is currently Running a process. Refresh the screen to see the updates on this process.
