Overview

The PT Import Content project will allow CS Owners to easily import content via the Content Creation API. The basic controls are to import subsites based on a formatted spread sheet and to import page content into Formatted Text Blocks. Imported content for subsites and pages can be re-imported and modified.

The Import process looks like this:

1. Import Subsite content into the Subsite Mapping Custom Element
2. Process the records in the Subsite Mapping Custom Element [create subsites]
3. Import Page content into the Page Mapping Custom Element
4. Process the records in the Page Mapping Custom Element [create pages]
5. Fix Page links
