XML objects in the Content Manager OnDemand XML file

You can use an XML interface to import data into a Content Manager OnDemand system. Before importing data, you need to have an XML file that contains all the data that needs to be imported. The XML file can be either created during a previous XML export process or created manually. This section helps you to understand the objects in the XML file.

The following diagram illustrates the overall layout of the Content Manager OnDemand XML file.

The following tables provide detailed descriptions about the objects in the Content Manager OnDemand XML file. If you create these objects in an input XML file, ensure that you include them in the following order:
  1. systemParameters
  2. user
  3. group
  4. printer
  5. storageSet
  6. applicationGroup
  7. application
  8. folder
  9. cabinet
  10. hold
  11. odfRecipient
  12. odfRecipientList
  13. odfReportId
  14. odfDistribution with odfReportBundles
For each object, the following information is provided:
Name
The name of the attribute. An attribute name in bold indicates that the attribute is a "key" attribute, which is used to uniquely identify the object. For all top-level objects, this is the Name attribute.
DataType

Required
Whether this attribute is required. Dependent means that the attribute may be required based on the settings of other attributes.

Possible Values

For each child object, the following information is provided:
Name
The name of the child object. An attribute name in bold indicates that the attribute is a "key" attribute which is used to uniquely identify the object.
Min/Max Number

Whether this child object can be deleted.
Updateable

For all XML objects, the data that is associated with an object is only in the form of attribute data and child objects.
Important: The capitalization of the object names is important and should be used exactly as shown in the data tables.
