Insight Import: How can I link an object from a different scheme during import?

Regula Sutter

I have two object type schemes, let's call them Venues and Assets.

When importing objects into the Venues scheme (from JSON), I want them to reference previously created objects from the scheme Assets.

Is this possible in the new version 5.4? And if it is: how to accomplish it?

Thank you for the help!

Hi Regula,

Yes this is possible in version 5.4, and basically the only difference is that you need to update the schema configuration to allow access from other schemas, and then set the object attribute type to point to the correct object type from this schema.

The can be enabled like in the following screen shot

For more information on how to configure the import, take a look at https://documentation.riada.se/insight/latest/insight-manager-s-guide/import-and-synchronization/general-import-concepts

And there is a section there specific for object references at Import Attribute /Object Mapping (IQL).

If you feel like this answered your question, please mark it as accepted

Cheers!

Thank you, Alexander, for your answer.

I will try it out and mark the answer as accepted if it works. (Or come back with more questions if it doesn't.)

Cheers,

Regula

this was meant as a response, not as a new solution.

Alexander,

This is the relevant part of my object type mapping:

However, when I synchronise, the objects of the other scheme are not added as an Attribute to the objects of this scheme.

Both schemes are configured to let others select their objects.

I can add them manually, but that's not the point.

What am I missing?

Cheers,

Regula

Hi Regula,

I am sorry for missleading you. After looking closer at this, it does indeed turn our that it's not yet possible to import object references from another schema.

We have an feature request for this however at https://jira.riada.se/browse/ICS-739

Follow that for updates on when the feature is released.

Cheers!
Alexander
