Metadata Import Successful but Data Not Visible in DHIS2 Demo

Hello DHIS2 Community,

I recently imported metadata into the DHIS2 demo instance (Login app | DHIS2) , and the process was marked as successful. However, when I checked the system, the imported data does not appear. Has anyone else encountered this issue?

Steps Taken:

1. Verified Data Visibility – Checked relevant apps (Tracker Capture, Data Entry, Maintenance) but the imported data is missing.
2. Checked User Permissions – The user account has metadata import rights, but could there be additional permissions needed?
3. Reviewed Import Logs – The logs show a successful import, but no warnings or errors were present.
4. Checked Metadata Dependencies – Ensured that related objects (data elements, org units, etc.) exist before importing.
5. Tried the Bulk Load App – Even though the app processed the import successfully, the data does not show up.

Questions for the Community:

• Has anyone faced a similar issue when importing metadata into DHIS2?
• Are there specific configurations required to make imported metadata visible?
• Could this be related to caching issues or system synchronization delays?

Any guidance or troubleshooting tips would be greatly appreciated!
