## Execute data import

To import JSON files stored in Object Storage into a cluster:

1. In the VPC environment on the NAVER Cloud Platform console, navigate to **Menu** > **All Services** > **Big Data & Analytics** > **Search Engine Service**.
2. Click the **Import** menu.
3. Select the cluster to import data into, then click **[Import data]**.
4. Select **Object Storage**, then click **[Next]**.
5. Enter the data source settings, then click **[OK]**.
  - **Bucket**: Select the bucket that contains the file to import.
    - In order to select buckets for which access control is set, you need to allow access of all nodes.
  - **File path**: Enter the file path in the format "folder/file name within the bucket." (Example: `myFolder/myFile.json`).
  - **Index**: Enter the name of the index to store the data in.
    - The number of primary shards is set to 1, and the type is `\_doc`.
    - To use a different number of primary shards or a different type, create the index in advance (see [Store data](/docs/en/ses-kibana-vpc#%EB%8D%B0%EC%9D%B4%ED%84%B0%EC%A0%80%EC%9E%A5)).
  - **Bulk format**: Select whether the data to import uses the bulk format.
    - For more information on the bulk format, see [Bulk API guide](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/docs-bulk.html).

              Note

              

You can view the imported data in Kibana or OpenSearch Dashboards (see [View data](/docs/en/ses-kibana-vpc#%EB%8D%B0%EC%9D%B4%ED%84%B0%EC%A1%B0%ED%9A%8C)).

## Stop data import

To stop a running data import:

1. In the VPC environment on the NAVER Cloud Platform console, navigate to **Menu** > **All Services** > **Big Data & Analytics** > **Search Engine Service**.
2. Click the **Import** menu.
3. Select the cluster that is importing data.
4. Click **[Stop data import]**.
5. In the Stop data import popup, click **[OK]**.

              Note

              

Data imported before the import is stopped is not deleted.

## View data import history

1. In the VPC environment on the NAVER Cloud Platform console, navigate to **Menu** > **All Services** > **Big Data & Analytics** > **Search Engine Service**.
2. Click the **Import** menu.
