Import Containers

An Import Container is the entry point of the Import API requests and serves as a data container for asynchronous API calls.

Every create, update, or patch request sent to the Import API is first accumulated in an Import Container and then asynchronously imported into commercetools Composable Commerce. For more information on using Import Containers effectively for your requirements, see best practices.

ImportContainer

Serves as the entry point of resources. An Import Container is not resource type-specific.

`version` Int	The version of the ImportContainer.
`key` String	User-defined unique identifier for the ImportContainer. Keys can only contain alphanumeric characters (a-Z, 0-9), underscores and hyphens (_, -).
`resourceType` ImportResourceType	The resource type the ImportContainer is able to handle. If not present, the ImportContainer is able to import all of the supported ImportResourceTypes.
`createdAt` DateTime	The time when the ImportContainer was created.
`lastModifiedAt` DateTime	The last time when the ImportContainer was modified.

Example: minimaljson

{
  "key" : "my-import-container",
  "version" : 1,
  "createdAt" : "2018-02-05T09:47:16.648Z",
  "lastModifiedAt" : "2018-02-05T09:47:16.649Z"
}
