Importing Data to NVivo (Win)

Once you are finished with creating your project, it is time to start gathering the information that you want to organize and eventually analyze. There is a multitude of formats that we can choose from: Word documents, PDF files, online services (such as survey monkey) or even image files. All of the aforementioned files can be imported into an NVIVO project. 


 

  • On the Import tab, in the Data group, click Files.

 

  • Choose the files you want to import. Click Open and then click Import.

 

 

  • (Optional) A document properties window will open where you can change the name, description, and add attribute values. Click OK when you are finished.

 

 

  • Click on Files in the left navigation pane to see your files.

 

 

  • Congratulations! You have imported your documents.
