Legacy data are unstructured or semi-structured exports from legacy applications. These exports do not use CSV or XML data structures. To extract relevant data from such files, use the Unstructured Data Filter and define the positions of fields of interest. The filter in Automation extracts field values and makes them available for printing on labels.
