This [data stream](../../datastreams/data-streams-introduction) handles Empatica sensor data downloaded as zip files using the [E4 Connect](https://support.empatica.com/hc/en-us/articles/201608896-Data-export-and-formatting-from-E4-connect-).
You need to create a subfolder for every participant named after their `device id` inside the folder specified by `[EMPATICA_DATA_STREAMS][empatica_zipfiles][FOLDER]`. You can add one or more Empatica zip files to any subfolder.
The script to connect and download data from this container is at:
```bash
src/data/streams/empatica_zip/container.R
```
## Format
The `format.yaml` maps and transforms columns in your raw data stream to the [mandatory columns RAPIDS needs for Empatica sensors](../mandatory-empatica-format). This file is at:
```bash
src/data/streams/empatica_zip/format.yaml
```
All columns are mutated from the raw data in the zip files so you don't need to modify any column mappings.
