File import

Top Previous Next

The file import module allows you to import many files including their folder structure from the disk to Kentico CMS content repository, so that you do not have to upload the one-by-one using the user interface.

By default, the files are imported from the CMSImportFiles folder. You can change this folder at CMS Site Manager/Settings/Files/File import folder.

After you upload the files to the given folder, you may need to refresh the page by clicking the File import again. Now you should see the list of files with checkboxes that allow you to choose which files should be imported. You can also choose where the files will be stored in the content tree and if you want to delete the files from the disk once they are imported.

Target alias path	Here you can select the path where imported files should be placed.
Culture	The files would be created in selected culture
Delete Imported files from disk	If this box is checked, the files will be be deleted from the given folder
Include file extension in name	Indicates if the file extension should be included in the name of the file as displayed at the content tree of CMS Desk.
