# Importing data

The Import Data tool enables you to import and integrate non-OpenText data into an Analysis session. After the import procedure, you can view the data files as graphs within the session, using all the capabilities of the Analysis tool.

Suppose an performance monitor runs on a server and measures its behavior. After running a scenario on the server, you can retrieve the results of the performance monitor, and integrate the data into the results. This enables you to correlate trends and relationships between the two sets of data, from OpenText Professional Performance Engineering and the performance monitor.

In this case, the results of the performance monitor are saved as a .csv file. You launch the Import Data tool, direct it to the .csv file, and specify its format. The file is read and the results are integrated into its own Analysis session.

For a list of data formats that are supported, see Supported file types.

To define your own custom data files, see Define custom file formats.
