Sorry for the delay. It looks like there was an update since I first did this last year. The version we are currently using is 3.09.142.
I made some progress, but still not quite there. I attached a picture of how my prior egocentric networks show up in ORA. We had pulled these in all from a single csv file by setting the participant (ego) IDs as a date field. I thought we had started by importing a table of node attributes and the adding network links but now the only way I can get the separate ego networks is by importing a table of network links first.
I did this by:
Data import wizard
Import Excel or text delimited files
Table of network links
Create a new meta-network
Select csv file to import
Set source and target node and link value
Set participant ID column as “Dates – Time periods”
Select “Create a dynamic meta-network with these options”
This gives me the separate ego networks again but now I can't figure out how to pull in the table of node attributes with characteristics of the egos and alters and get them to link with the correct network based on the participant ego ID "date" field. Any thoughts on this? Thank you!
