Updated over 2 months ago

💡 Why import files?

To get the full benefit of Autility, all documentation and information related to your properties should be gathered in one place. This includes everything from evacuation plans to service agreements. File import makes it easy and efficient to upload large volumes of data at once, while taking advantage of smart features that improve organization and visibility.

⚙️ How Does It Work?

  1. Open Autility

  2. Select the ""icon at the top left of the overview

  3. Go to “Files” under “Import” and select Upload

  4. Upload your ZIP file

  5. Select the uploaded ZIP file in the list

🗂️ File Processing

When importing files, it is important to tag them with basic information such as:

  • Location – Which property the file belongs to

  • Classification – Building component table for clear categorization

  • Document Type – For example, report, contract, or drawing

Good file management saves time and ensures you get the best experience from Autility’s features.

🤖 Smart AI Features

To streamline file handling, several intelligent features are activated during import:

  • Automatic Classification
    AI analyzes your files and, where possible, identifies classification, location, and document type. Missing information can easily be updated manually in the app.

  • Incident Detection
    If you import service reports in PDF format and set the document type to “Report,” incident detection can identify reported issues directly from the document. These incidents can be created in the app and managed as part of your daily follow-up.

✅ Final step – Mark as completed

Once all your files are reviewed and ready for use:

  • Select your files and choose “Mark as completed”

  • The files will now be available in your file overview

🎉 Congratulations!

Your files are now imported, organized, and ready to use in Autility. You’ve got a complete facility management system where all data is centralized and easily accessible—making your workday smoother and more efficient.
