Decide if a single file should be imported or multiple files

import gui
  • Compared to the standard import GUI, the import GUI extension can be used to specify the processing pipeline as well as the step to import the uploaded files

  • The Pacemaker Process Pipelines system is used as a cronjob replacement to improve clarity, management and adaptability

  • If you are in single file mode:

    • You have to specify what kind of pipeline and operation you want to perform, because the naming of the file is ignored here

    • The pipeline, that will be spawned, only consists of that specific type of import with the specific import step

      • E.g. If you selected import catalog and product import as Pipeline Step, the pipeline will be spawned with just the product import step (besides the default steps such as "move_file" etc)

  • When you are in multi file mode, the complete import pipeline will be spawned and the naming of the file will is taken into account
