Create a Dataset
This article is part of The Definitive Guide to Importing and Preparing Data.
Creating a dataset is the important first step in working with Crunch. Part of this includes considering your optimal data format and data transmission.
In the web app
- The easiest way to upload or transfer your data is via the web app.
- Note: getting the right type of data is an important consideration (SPSS files, despite being prolific, are not the optimum workflow). You can save a lot of time using one of the direct survey importers or building a custom exporter if you have your own, internal survey collection platform.
Using R
