NATS4 REST API Bulk Import Adtools
From TMM Wiki
Jump to navigationJump to searchPOST /adtool/import
Description
- NATS4 now supports an API action that allows you to import bulk adtools. This lets you insert your custom adtools into the NATS tools through an automated process by running a cron that calls the bulk import API for your adtools import. This API sends all the standard information for the bulk importer (the dump, what the separator and fields are, etc.) so NATS can process the imported adtools as normal for the bulk importer.
