== Overview ==
The PT Import Content Application uses the [[CCAPI|ADF CCAPI]] to populate custom elements and text blocks, and create subsites and pages. The CCAPI needs to be configured for the site and PT Import Content application.

First, follow the steps to set up the [[CCAPI Config|CCAPI Config]] file for the site. Once that configuration is complete, follow the steps below to set up the CCAPI config for the Photo Gallery application. Make sure to update the ''wsVars'' section with the correct URLs and username/password.

== Setup ==
# Create a new page called 'ccapiPhoto'. Recommend creating this page in the ''/webadmin/photogallery/'' subsite.
# Add the 'Photo' element to the page.
# Select the 'Photo' element indicator and go to 'more...'. Select 'Name' from the menu.
# In the Element Name field, enter the text 'ccapiPhotoElement'.
# Publish this page and view in read mode.
# Edit the 'ccapi.xml' file for the site and add the following xml block into the <elements> section:
<source lang="xml">
<Photo>
<pageID>#####</pageID>
<subsiteID>##</subsiteID>
<elementType>custom</elementType>
<controlName>ccapiPhotoElement</controlName>
</Photo>
</source>

To populate the <pageID> and <subsiteID> tags, view the source code for the 'ccapiPhoto' page that was just created.

Identify the following line in the source code and enter this numeric value into the <subsiteID> tag:
<source lang="java">
var jsSubSiteID = ##;
</source>

Identify the following line in the source code and enter this numeric value into the <pageID> tag:
<source lang="java">
var jsPageID = ####;
</source>
