Yes. You can find a complete example in my [SpreadSheet Import Tool](https://inductiveautomation.com/exchange/2660/overview) on the Ignition Exchange. Just alter the code to use whatever you want instead of a spreadsheet.

More details here:

> Now [in the Ignition Exchange](https://inductiveautomation.com/exchange/2660/overview). While waiting on IA review, i Interested parties can also get this here: [https://www.automation-pros.com/SpreadsheetImportTool/](https://www.automation-pros.com/SpreadsheetImportTool/) I intend to publish at this link as well as in the Exchange going forward. Announcements will be in this topic. (:
