Formats for data import and export

Use the following import and export termbase data formats: *.tbx, *.xml, *.xlsx and *.csv.

*.tbx and *.xml

These are standard extensions for termbases. Termbases created in MultiTerm and in the cloud terminology environment can have these extensions. Therefore, you can transfer (import or export) termbases between MultiTerm and cloud.

*.xlsx and *.csv

You can export and import termbases stored in *.xlsx and *.csv format. These are the fundamentals:
  • One termbase entry is represented on one row in these files.
  • Synonyms are represented inside the same cell. The default separator character is "|".
  • Terms can have multiple attributes of the same type (multiple value attributes) represented in the same cell. The default multiple values separator character is "/".
