Importing an Existing Project

How to Import Projects

If you just started ATLAS.ti,

Select the Import Project option on the right-hand side of the opening screen.

If ATLAS.ti is already open,

Double-click on a project bundle file on your computer. This will open ATLAS.ti if it is not already open, and you can import the project.

OR:

Select Project > Import Project. Rename the project if appropriate.

Options

  • You have the option to rename the project before importing. This is useful for team project work and if you do not want to overwrite an existing version.

Importing a project

If the project contains Linked Media Files

If the project contains linked media files, and the files have not been included in the bundle, you can relink them. This requires that you have a copy of the file on your computer, or a file that is accessible on an external drive or server.

Project File Formats

You can import projects exported by ATLAS.ti 8 or newer. Projects can be moved seamlessly between Windows and Mac without any loss.

Additionally, projects created with ATLAS.ti Web can be imported, as well as projects created with ATLAS.ti Mobile on iPad or Android.

ATLAS.ti is a proud supporter of the vendor-independent REFI QDPX standard, and can import projects written in this format, regardless of which application it was created with.
