[SOLVED] Spreadsheet Import - Suppress Auto ID Column

[mikekoh]

I imported a node list from a spreadsheet with the following format:

Code: Select all

Id;Label;EntityType
31847102;Lu;Person

After the data is imported, I see two Id columns, one from the data I imported and another that's automatically created by Gephi. Consequently, when I try to import the edge list, I get the following error:

Edges table needs a 'Source' and 'Target' column with node ids.

Anybody know how to fix this?

Can you show your edge list? This message is not related to what you previously imported. You need to have a "Source" and a "Target" column while importing an edge list.

Thanks for the reply, but I figured out the issue. The node and edge list files I was using were created from a program, and the files apparently were not being recognized as real CSV files by Gephi. When I copied the content of each file over to a text editor and saved the new versions, the import executed successfully.
