How do I import flows or processes from other work that have been done from collaborative data into my OpenLCA window?

Question

How do I import flows or processes from other work that have been done on https://data.openlca.org/search I have downloaded several flows and tutorials from the website either as but every time I try to import flows, or process (either as Datasets or Repository) the JASON file that is available on the file downloaded couldn't be found by OpenLCA. I have installed Java, ElasticSearch and OpenLCA collaborative and the issue is still showing the same results. Please help

Answer 1

Indeed, the file selection dialogue behaved a bit funny in Windows, it was a quite old part of the implementation and we had cases where files where not found that were added after openLCA was open e.g.; we fixed this in 1.10.2, can you maybe retry?

Note that you need to keep the JSON files zipped as archives, do not unpack them before the import.

Actually, I have the same issue in the version 1.10.2 and when I am trying to import the zipped file choosing "Linked Data (JSON-LD), the zipped file is invisible and I cannot choose it. Thanks in advance for your support!

(you first need to select the folder, then after having selected it, you will see the archive for import)
