Import notebooks in DataStax Studio

You can import Studio notebook files into DataStax Studio.

The contents of the imported notebooks are defined during the export process. For example, a notebook that was exported with cell code only is then imported without result sets.

If an imported notebook has the same name as an existing notebook, a numeric suffix is appended to the notebook name, such as`(1)` and (2).

File compatibility

Only notebooks exported from DataStax Studio can be imported because the file is a packaged compressed file of custom JSON.

To import, the uncompressed tarball file must be specified.

Each version of DataStax Studio uses a different format. DataStax doesn’t recommend using older notebooks in newer Studio versions.

The compatibility of DSE version to Studio version is:

DSE Studio

DSE 6.8

Studio 6.8

DSE 6.7

Studio 6.7

DSE 6.0

Studio 6.0

DSE 5.1

Studio 2.0 (doesn’t support import or export)
