##  View import activity

After you set up the file import data source and begin importing files, you can view the import activity in the **Data Sources Dashboard** by expanding the data source and clicking the **Status** tab. This page shows a rolling month report, with details about how many rows were processed, with and without errors, in graphical format. A tabular view appears directly underneath the graph.

File rows are processed at a variable rate based on the regional load in our multi-tenant environment, but most files are processed within 24 hours. 

If an error occurs, hover over the red area of a bar in the graph to display a breakdown of the errors. Tooltips show common errors with a link to a detailed report of all errors hosted in AWS S3. Hover over any bar in the graph to view details about the number of rows processed.
