SubmitImport Operation

This operation receives data file content that has been converted to byte array format and submits the content with the data import to the Data Importer. To use this operation, create an application, if one is not already available, to convert the data file content to byte array format. The application then sends the content to this web service operation.

This operation returns a data import job ID, which is used to verify the status of the import job.
