Abstract
A system, method, and computer-program product include receiving, via an API server, an upload request that includes a logical table reference parameter and a structured data file. A table metadata schema corresponding to the logical table reference parameter is retrieved from a metadata repository. A plurality of data entries of the structured data file are converted into schema-conforming data records using column metadata definitions extracted from the schema. The conversion includes identifying source column headers matching source column identifiers, parsing associated cell value sets, validating the cell value sets based on criteria defined in the metadata definitions, and associating validated values with database columns. The schema-conforming data records are persisted to a database table designated in the table metadata schema.
