What
This page describes how to setup the bulk-import codeunit, to import a lot of files at once and generate a separate record in an entity, for each file.
How
First, setup an entity with at least two fields: A text-field for the filename and a document field for the document.
Second, create or edit the following 5 "Static content".
- BulkImport.SagID, the SagID of the entity that is the target of the import
- BulkImport.UserGroupID, The GroupID of the usergroup that is allowed to access the bulk-import system
- BulkImport.FileTitleField, The systemname of the field where the name of the file should be stored
- BulkImport.FileFieldID, The FieldID of the field where the uploaded document should be stored
- BulkImport.StatusID, The StatusID that uploaded documents should have
Third, edit the url on the site and access main?command=dk.tempusserva.codeunit.bulkimport.ImportPage
Fourth, upload the files.
Next step could be to index all the files, allowing the content of the files to be searched and queried, maybe through ChatGPT.
