Project Setup

Adding Documents to a Project

The two upload paths QInsights offers, and which one to choose for each kind of file.

On this page

To add documents to your project, click Upload New File.

Adding documents to a project - Upload New File and the Project Files list.
Adding documents to a project - Upload New File and the Project Files list.

You'll then see two options:

Select transcription language or speaker detection if applicable.
Select transcription language or speaker detection if applicable.
  1. The first option applies when you add audio or video files for transcription. You can either let the system auto-detect the language or select one of 18 preset languages. Selecting a preset language improves the accuracy of the transcription. See Transcribing Audio or Video Files.
  2. The second option relates to uploading transcripts for interviews or focus groups prepared elsewhere. Switch on Detect Speakers (see Preparing Documents for Analysis - Transcripts Created Elsewhere for how these documents need to be formatted). See Adding Transcripts Created Elsewhere.

Make a selection if applicable and click Proceed, then select the file(s) to upload.

For reports, notes, or articles in Word or PDF format that aren't a multi-speaker transcript, and for spreadsheet-based survey data, neither option applies - there's nothing to transcribe or detect. See Adding Reports, Notes, etc. in Word or PDF Format and Adding an Excel File.

Note: QInsights currently transcribes one audio or video file at a time.

Next Steps

Once your files are uploaded, continue to Project View After Data Are Uploaded to see how uploaded documents are displayed and managed.
