# Import and Export ADIF
|
|
|
|
OpsLog is **ADIF 3.1.7 compliant**: a full field dictionary, 30 promoted columns,
|
|
a generic "extra fields" editor for anything not promoted, and standard/all
|
|
export modes.
|
|
|
|
## Import
|
|
|
|
Import an `.adi` / `.adif` file into the active profile's logbook. On import,
|
|
OpsLog parses every field, maps standard fields to columns and keeps unknown but
|
|
valid ADIF fields in a per-QSO **extras** store (editable later). Country /
|
|
zones are enriched from `cty.dat` where missing. A file **without a header**
|
|
(records pasted from another log) imports fine.
|
|
|
|
- **Field remapping**: the import dialog can move a field as it reads it —
|
|
e.g. the RSGB IOTA contest exports the island reference in `STATE`; add a
|
|
`STATE → IOTA` row and it lands where the award looks.
|
|
- **Fill from profile**: optionally stamps your station fields *and* your
|
|
default confirmation statuses (paper QSL, LoTW, eQSL, Club Log, HRDLog,
|
|
QRZ.com) on QSOs the file leaves empty — a WSJT-X log carries almost none.
|
|
Existing values are never overwritten.
|
|
|
|
## Export
|
|
|
|
- **Whole log**, **selected rows**, or the **filtered view** (no limit) — see
|
|
[[Recent QSOs and Filters]].
|
|
- **Standard** mode exports the common promoted fields; **All** mode also
|
|
exports every extra field; **Choose fields…** opens a picker that separates
|
|
the official ADIF 3.1.7 fields (by category) from the OpsLog / non-standard
|
|
tags actually present in your log, with All/None per group. Your selection is
|
|
remembered.
|
|
- **Cabrillo** export for contest submission.
|
|
|
|
## Round-trip safety
|
|
|
|
Award references you assign manually are stored in an ADIF extra field
|
|
(`APP_OPSLOG_AWARDREFS`), so exporting your full log and re-importing it does
|
|
not lose your award-reference assignments.
|
|
|
|
## Tips
|
|
|
|
- To move a batch of QSOs between logs, export selected → import into the other
|
|
profile.
|
|
- Use **Find duplicates** (Tools) after importing to catch overlaps.
