Import Provider

Connected Object Grooper.Core

Enables import of file-based content from a variety of sources such as file systems, mail servers, and content repositories.

Remarks

An Import Provider defines how documents and folders are brought into Grooper from external sources. It can be used in several ways:

  • To perform user-directed imports from the Imports page.
  • To perform scheduled imports using the Import Watcher service.
  • To import documents from Search Page results.

Import Providers support both standard and sparse import modes. In sparse mode, only a Content Link is created for each document, deferring content loading until needed. This optimizes storage and speeds up high-volume imports.

Configuration options allow you to control batch creation, naming, content type assignment, and incremental import behavior. All Grooper modules can work with sparse documents in the same way as with normal documents.
