Converting Omniscope Classic IOK file to Omniscope Evo IOX project

Modified on Tue, 28 Mar 2023 at 12:28 PM


If you are an Omniscope Classic user and wish to take advantage of the Omniscope Evo technology you can either rebuild the existing data transformation workflow, while using the old design as your blueprint, or use an automated mechanism to convert the this ETL logic to the Evo equivalent (the DataManager in Classic).


To use the automation process - open the Omniscope Evo application either from the Start menu or by clicking on the blue icon on your desktop.


- Upload your IOK file to the projects page by clicking on the upload button, or simply drag the file to the middle of the page. The IOK file will have an orange icon next to the file name, compared to the blue icon for the Evo iox projects.


- Click on the 'Migrate button' - this operation will convert your IOK DataManager to the Evo data workflow. You will see a bunch of health warnings on the project canvas to inform you about the conversion process.


- Check the results, to make sure the data was uploaded and transformed successfully, and that the output of the new project is identical to the output of your IOK file.


You will notice that there are now 2 files with the same name on the projects list - the conversion will preserve your original IOK file along with the Evo IOX project and a compressed data file, in the IOD format.




Note: You will need to create new visualisations, as the IOK chart libraries are not compatible with the new technology used in Evo.
