# Importing Data

## Overview

An import extracts the data defined in a source dataset from the source system and loads it into the Lucanet solutions that use the data. You can start an import at any time and track its progress and results in the execution history of the source dataset.

## Starting an Import

To start an import:

{% stepper %}
{% stepper-step %}
On the **Integrations** page, click the icon in the row of the source dataset you want to import.
{% /stepper-step %}
{% stepper-step %}
Select **Start import**.

Data Hub runs the import and records the execution in the execution history of the source dataset.
{% /stepper-step %}
{% /stepper %}

## Viewing Execution Details

The execution details show the results of the imports of a source dataset. To open the execution details, click the icon in the row of the source dataset and select **View execution details**.

The execution details are displayed as follows, for example:

Execution details of a source dataset

The top of the page displays the source system, the user who created the source dataset, and the time of the last execution. The **Execution history** table below lists every execution:

| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Start date | Date and time the import started. |
| End date | Date and time the import ended. |
| Duration | Duration of the import. |
| Triggered by | User or process that started the import. |
| Status | Result of the import. |
| Execution ID | Unique identifier of the import execution. |

## Import Statuses

An import can have one of the following statuses:

| Status | Description |
|---|---|
| Running | The import is currently in progress. |
| Succeeded | The import completed successfully. |
| Failed | The import did not complete because an error occurred. |
