Database seeding is a mechanism to use a pre-populated or an existing database with the app. A seeded database saves time required to sync data between the Server and the mobile device.
Database Location
For database seeding, you must export the intelatrac.zip file that contains the database, to your device. To know how to export the database, see the section 'Local Database' in the topic Local. The database (intelatrac.zip) to be seeded must be available in the external memory location of the device for the user to select the file for seeding.
To use a seeded database
-
Authenticate the user.
Note: The authenticated user must be a part of the seeded database.
-
Configure the device in the Device screen.
-
Enter the Sync Server details in the Sync Server screen.
If you have a database to seed, then on tapping Skip button, a file browser screen appears.
-
Navigate and select the intelatrac.zip file to seed.
-
Enter the password to seed the database. You must enter the same password that you had provided when exporting the database.
The database is seeded, and the logon screen appears.
Note:
- You can only seed database from Mobile Operator 2025.
- To clear the data stored by the app including files and settings, see the section 'Clearing App Data' in the Initial Setup topic.
