Database Seeding

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 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 - UWP. The database (intelatrac.zip) to be seeded must be copied to the device at the following location:

32 Bit and 64 Bit Devices    Location

External path:                          C:\Users\<username>\Documents\IntelaTrac\IntelaTrac.zip

To use a seeded database

1. Copy the exported ZIP file (intelatrac.zip) to the database seed location of the device.

   Note: The authenticated user must be a part of the seeded database

2. Authenticate the user.

3. Configure the device in the Device screen.

4. Enter the Sync Server details in the Sync Server screen.

   If you have a database to seed, then on tapping Continue or Skip button, the Seed Database screen appears.

5. Enter the password to seed the database. You must enter the same password that you had provided when exporting the database.

Note:
- You cannot seed an unsupported database. Seeding is only possible with the database of same version.
- To clear the data stored by the app including files and settings, see the section 'Clearing App Data' in the Initial Setup topic.
