Reviewing the Packages CSV#

The Packages CSV creates groupings of one or more option references to associate with a Package. A name for the package is required, followed by an arbitrary number of Ids from the Options CSV file to associate with that package. Open the CSV file and review how this file is structured:

  • The first row is a header, and should not contain any options. What is entered into this row will not impact the resulting JSON output.

  • Column A should contain a unique ID for the Package.

  • Column B should contain a unique name for the Package.

  • Columns C and onward should contain an ID from the Options CSV. Any number of columns may be added.

Here are some examples of Packages from the Concept Car asset:
