Event Import

You can configure import jobs to associate imported files with specific CA DataMinder users.

Searching by user

To enable reviewers to search for imported files by user, this Event Import parameter associates a single event participant with each imported file. This means each file in this import is associated with the same participant.

ImpFile.AssociatedParticipant 

If this parameter is omitted or cannot be resolved, the file has unspecified participants so CA DataMinder associates it with the source machine.

Which user policy is applied?

This Event Import parameter determines which policy is applied:

ImpFile.PolicyParticipant 

If this parameter is omitted or cannot be resolved, the policy engine applies a default policy.

Important: This parameter must be specified and the email address must exist for a File Import Policy job. If the parameter is omitted, all files will be excluded and the default policy is not applied.

In both cases, these parameters specify email addresses. Linked tables in the CMS database then enable CA DataMinderto map these email addresses onto existing CA DataMinder user accounts.
