Manual upload

Most energy data flows into Myrspoven automatically — from a BMS, from a third-party energy provider, or directly from meters. When automated data transfer isn't possible, you can upload energy data manually instead.

When to use manual upload

Common reasons to upload manually:

• You don't have a way to share energy data through an automated channel.
• You use a third-party energy provider that Myrspoven doesn't currently integrate with. See Requesting a new third-party integration if you'd like us to support a new provider.
• Historical data has been corrected or rescaled — for example, units changed from megawatts (MW) to kilowatts (kW). Previously uploaded data will appear in different numerical values in this case (1 MW = 1000 kW).
• A time period contains missing data that needs to be backfilled.

How uploaded data is handled

Data you upload is treated as the most accurate and up-to-date source for that signal.

If you upload data for a time period that already has data in the system, the existing values within that period are automatically replaced by the new upload. The system will always reflect the latest reliable data you've provided — there's no manual merge step. If you have two separate intervals of data that need to be updated, you must upload the data in two separate batches to avoid losing the data in between.

Supported data format

The minimum structure for an upload is two columns:

1. Timestamp
2. Energy value

The system automatically converts units when the uploaded units differ from those stored for the signal — for example, an upload in kWh against a signal stored in MWh. If a conversion isn't possible (for example, mismatched dimensions), you'll be notified during the upload process and the upload will be rejected.

The in-app instructions are canonical. The upload form in BackOffice includes step-by-step guidance on the exact file format and field requirements. If anything on this page differs from what the upload form shows, follow the form — it's always the most up to date.
