Exporting the glossary

To export the glossary to a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet, click Export Glossary.

If you plan to import the exported glossary file to Blueworks Live, follow these steps to ensure that importing works smoothly.
  1. Open the exported file (for example, Glossary Export - Systems.xlsx) in Microsoft Excel.
  2. Look at the accepted values that are listed for fields (columns) in the CSV file format table. Remove other fields, such as Item Type, Enumerated, and Added By.
  3. Look at the accepted values that are listed for visibility in the CSV file format table. Change the visibility values to accepted values.
  4. Check the description field. Descriptions must be on a single line to be imported. If the description is longer than one line, change it to one line by removing newline characters, either in Excel or in an editor that displays those characters.
  5. Click Save As, and select CSV UTF-8 (Comma delimited) (*.csv) as the type.
Follow the next set of instructions to import the glossary.
