<p>THe first iteration of a dataset to data dictionary function is the
<code><a href="../reference/ds2dd.html">ds2dd()</a></code>, which creates a very basic data dictionary with
all variables stored as text. This is sufficient for just storing old
datasets/spreadsheets securely in REDCap.</p>

<p>The more advanced <code><a href="../reference/ds2dd_detailed.html">ds2dd_detailed()</a></code> is a natural
development. It will try to apply the most common data classes for data
validation and will assume that the first column is the id number. It
outputs a list with the dataset with modified variable names to comply
with REDCap naming conventions and a data dictionary.</p>
<p>The dataset should be correctly formatted for the data dictionary to
preserve as much information as possible.</p>

<p>Additional specifications to the DataDictionary can be made manually,
or it can be uploaded and modified manually in the graphical user
interface on the web page.</p>

<h3 id="step-3---meta-data-upload">Step 3 - Meta data upload<a class="anchor" aria-label="anchor" href="#step-3---meta-data-upload"></a>
</h3>
<p>Now the DataDictionary can be exported as a spreadsheet and uploaded
or it can be uploaded using the <code>REDCapR</code> package (only
projects with “Development” status).</p>
<p>Use one of the two approaches below:</p>

<p>In the <a href="https://agdamsbo.github.io/redcap-r-handbook/" class="external-link">“REDCap R
