Once you’ve finished entering all data for the meet, you’ll go to the Finish & Export tab, found under the Swimtopia Meet Settings (gear icon, upper right).
Covered in this Article:
Locking a Finished Meet |
A meet can be locked and unlocked from the Finish & Export page. Once locked, all further changes to the meet in Swimtopia Meet are prohibited.
Transfer Results |
» Tip: Before transferring or downloading results, check that all events are complete and scored (there are no “yellow” bars on your Event Status Bar). This is especially important in a virtual meet if the meets are not run at the same time. If one team transfers results before another team has run their meet, this can affect the heat/lane display in that team's mobile app.
Transfer Results
Once a meet is locked, the team designated as the home team transfers the results of the meet in Swimtopia Meet back into the Swimtopia accounts. This allows teams to browse (and adjust if allowed) the results in Swimtopia.
Results, including scores, will automatically upload to:
- Each team’s Results tab of the corresponding meet on their Swimtopia site.
- The Athlete Performance reports (Reports tab within Swimtopia).
- The per-family “My Account” swimmer time history pages within Swimtopia.
- The Swimtopia mobile app.
Results in Swimtopia
» Note: If you click Transfer Results a second time all results in each team’s Swimtopia sites will be updated with any edits made in Swimtopia Meet in the interim. If result edits were made in a team’s Swimtopia site under Results > Edit, those edits will be replaced by the exported results.
Results Transfer Errors
If you receive an error when attempting to transfer results, the message will tell you to let us know by submitting a support ticket, including the URL from the Finish & Export screen in Swimtopia Meet, and we will get this resolved for you ASAP.
➧ Workaround: If it is after hours and we do not see your request fast enough, keep in mind, that you can use the DOWNLOADS option to download the results file and then import it into your meet from the Results > Import tab.
File Download Options |
You'll find in the Finish & Export menu, that you can download Results, Advancers, Merge Entries, and Merge Results files.
Results Download
If the competitor is a non-Swimtopia team and meet entries were uploaded for the merge, you will see that the results are "NOT TRANSFERABLE," so you need to download a results file to send out. This is also the case if your team uploads your own meet entries for some reason.
You can download the results for the other team in the .hy3 (Hy-Tek) or .sd3 (SDIF - TeamUnify, Swimmingly) file format, so they can upload all results into their team management platform.
When generating the file, you have the option to include all teams in one file or generate different files for each team.
» Note: the _XYZ_ in the filename designates the file is for a single team
Advancers File Download
The Advancers file format is used when one swim meet serves as the qualification round for a subsequent swim meet. Usually, the top N finishers from each event move on to the next meet, and teams can also designate N number of alternate swimmers. However, multiple qualifying meets can feed into the later meet, so the rules can get complex.
The format basically takes each qualifying result from the first meet and makes it into an entry for the second meet, including some additional info, such as the finishing place in the qualifying meet.
» Tip: This file will come in handy for leagues where all teams use Swimtopia and the final meet/s of the season are run with Meet Manager in pools with touch pads.
Merge Entries
The Merge Entries HY3 format contains entries (including heat/lane) from all teams for import into Hy-Tek Meet Manager. You'll need to have created the meet in Meet Manager in advance of importing the Merge Entries file.
This file can also be imported into a Swimtopia meet on the Merge/Export screen. ➞ See Swimtopia Meet Entries – Ready to Merge.
Merge Results
The Merge Results HY3 format includes all scoring data. It is used to combine multiple meets into one in Hy-Tek Meet Manager (especially virtual meets).
Do you need a meet backup file?
We are aware that some meets (i.e., High School State meets) require a full meet backup file. The solution we can provide is to download the Merge Results file from a meet in Swimtopia Meet to import into Hy-Tek Meet Manager to extract a full meet database.
