Format of the Dataload.xml file

You can use the Dataload.xml file with both Compliance Accelerator and Discovery Accelerator, so it contains some information that applies to both applications. However, the file is well documented and shows which sections apply to which application.

Table: Primary Compliance Accelerator sections in Dataload.xml file

Section

Defines

ApplicationVaultStore

Vault stores that the application uses. This section is mandatory.

CaptureExclusions

Types of items, such as non-delivery reports and out-of-office replies, that Compliance Accelerator is not to capture and add to the review set.

Employee

Employees to add to the system, their email addresses, and any application roles to assign to them.

Employees are identified using the EmployeeID field, which equates to the Employee ID box in the employee properties page of the Compliance Accelerator client. If you create some profiles using the Compliance Accelerator client and later want to update them using an XML file, ensure that each employee has a unique ID.

EmployeeGroup

Employee groups, their members, and any application roles that are assigned to each group.

HotWordCategory

Global hotwords sets.

Attribute_n_Definition

Identity attributes that, when used in combination with the filter options in the Departments pane, let you hide or show selected departments in that pane.

Department

Departments. This section includes definitions of the following:

  • Department members and exception employees

  • The required review percentage for the department, groups, and individuals

  • Department roles that are assigned to individuals or groups

  • Vault stores for the department

  • Department hotword sets

Partition

Partitions, and the departments in them.

Proxy

Delegates for reviewers and compliance supervisors.

StandardReviewComment

Common comments that reviewers can add to the items that they review.

The second part of the file describes each XML entry. The last part of the file provides sample entries for a Compliance Accelerator system.

If you use any non-ASCII characters in a dataload file, you must specify the appropriate encoding. For example, you can save a file that contains accented European characters in Unicode format or add the following at the start of the file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1" ?>
