Getting Data Ready

LightTag expect you to upload your data as a JSON array of objects. For example consider the following data

Conv_id	Speaker	Time	Message
1	A	19:15:15	Hello, I want a Flight to New York
1	B	19:15:23	Hi. Sure where will you ne flying from ?
1	A	19:15:44	I think Miami, but maybe New Orleans instead.
2	C	19:15:15	Can you get me a cab to from LAX to JFK?
2	D	19:15:55	I’m sorry, I’m not sure I understand. Can you clarify what you mean?
2	C	19:16:03	Forget it. Just give me a human to speak with

To get this into LightTag we’d convert the table into a JSON array of objects where each object corresponds to a row:

[
    {   "Conv_id":1,
        "Spaker": "A",
        "Time": "19:15:15",
        "Message": "Hello, I want a Flight to New York"
    },
    {   "Conv_id":1,
        "Speaker": "B",
        "Time": "19:15:23",
        "Message": "Hi. Sure where will you ne flying from ?"
    },
    ...
]

That’s it. You can upload any JSON object with any fields and structures. Coming up next, we’ll see what that upload step looks like
