Master Data Upload for Existing APIs
The Challenge
The client had a modern API but their data was stuck in legacy Excel sheets. Manually entering this data was prone to human error and extremely slow.
The Solution
We created a middleware tool that parses Excel files, validates the data against the API's schema, and handles the upload process.
Key Features
- Drag & Drop Interface: Simple UI for non-technical users.
- Real-time Validation: Highlights errors in the Excel file before upload.
- Batch Processing: Uploads thousands of records in chunks to avoid timeouts.
- Rollback Capability: If an error occurs, the system can revert changes.
The Results
- Zero Data Entry Errors: Validation logic prevents bad data from entering the system.
- Hours Saved: What took days now takes minutes.
- User Independence: Non-technical staff can now manage data imports without IT support.
Technologies Used
To ensure scalability and security, we built this project using a modern tech stack:
- Frontend: React for a responsive UI
- Backend: Node.js and Express for efficient processing
- Data Processing: Specialized libraries for Excel parsing and API interfacing
