Supported Native Data Types

Native data are files generated by the originating application. For example, Microsoft Word creates .doc and .docx files.

Everlaw supports automatic native uploading and processing for the following file formats.

• Email and Chat Formats
• Container Files
• Web Formats
• Document Formats
• Image Formats
• Medical Image Formats
• CAD Formats
• Audio and Video
• Project Management Files
• GIS (Geographic Information System) Files
• Other

Email and Chat Formats

• EML, EMLX 
• Google Chat (Google Vault exports of mail-formatted chats and Hangouts JSON)
• iChat (DB)
• Microsoft Teams (HTML)

  Note

  Please package any associated attachments in the same container file as the MSGXML file before upload.

• RSMF v2
  • Must be compressed upon upload
  • During upload and processing, Everlaw ignores the outer EML file (which is useful only for backward compatibility reasons within the Relativity ecosystem), processes the JSON file(s) into a chat file(s), and extracts and links the attachment files. This means that RSMF data will now be properly represented as chats in Everlaw.
