About this task
The following procedure describes the steps that you are most likely to complete when you
import data for the first time. For an overview of all commands relating to import mappings and of
the REST API endpoints that are used, see Overview of commands and REST API endpoints.
Important: Do not create an import mapping from scratch. Always use a default mapping or
mapping template as the basis.
Complete this step after each upgrade of StoredIQ for Legal to get an
overview of the currently supported target entities.
Use the following syntax for your
command:
OPTIONS
Where:
-c clientid
--client-id clientid
The client that accesses the REST API. The default name is default.
-l signinid
--login-id signinid
The signin ID of an authorized user. The user must have the Import:
General privilege.
-f
--write-to-file
Writes the result to a JSON file.
Retrieve the default mapping for the target entity that you want to import. If no default
mapping is available or you want to import more attributes than the minimum set, retrieve the
mapping template. For more information, see also Default mappings, mapping templates, and custom mappings.
Retrieve the default mapping after each upgrade of StoredIQ for Legal to get an overview of its contents. If you use a
mapping template, retrieve it after each attribute change to check whether adjustments are
necessary.
To retrieve the default mapping, use the following syntax for your command:
To retrieve the mapping template, use the following syntax for your command:
Decide whether you can use the default mapping or the mapping template unchanged, whether
changes are necessary, or whether you want to create a custom mapping based on the default mapping
or the mapping template. Compare your import mapping to your CSV file to find out where in the
mapping changes are necessary.
If you decide to create a custom mapping based on the default mapping or mapping template, you
must make the custom mapping available for use. If you decide to change the mapping template, you
must make the changed mapping available. See also Custom mappings for an import from the GUI.
Use the following syntax for your command:
Where:
file
The name of the import mapping file that is made available.
