Is there a way to upload attached files by a data import?

[Anonymous]

Hello all,

I've been trying to find a way to upload files through the Data Import capabilty, but the field where the attached file is suposed to be placed, doesn't appear in the field map stage.

Does anyone knows if is there a way to do this?

Thank you all.

Kind regards.

Data Import feature doesn't support Attachment migration, instead Data Feed Manager supports it. Perform the same through Data Feed Manager.

Hi Arnab,

How do you import attachments through a datafeed? Is there a specific format that the file will need to be in?

Fullpath and filename with extension. Surely filepath should be accessible by the Archer service and appPool/

Hi Ilya,

Thanks for the reply. So if we are using an FTP transporter for all data imports, this file path should work as long as the file is uploaded into the FTP space - correct?

Depending on whether you use Relative or absolute path defined in the ACP. You need to put all files within the reach of the filesystem for the Archer server.
