'''''Import Providers''''' can be used in two ways:

* To perform manual "ad-hoc" imports when creating a new '''Batch''' in Grooper Dashboard or Grooper Design Studio.
* To perform automatic, scheduled imports using one or more '''Import Watcher''' services.

There are three different categories of Import Providers: '''''CMIS Import''''', '''''Legacy Import''''' and '''''Other Import'''''
</onlyinclude>

== CMIS Import ==

'''''CMIS Import''''' is an '''''Import Provider''''' used to import content over a '''CMIS Connection''' from '''CMIS Repositories'''. This allows users to import from various on-premise and cloud based storage platforms.

Documents are imported from '''CMIS Connections''' using either the '''''Import Descendants''''' or '''''Import Query Results''''' providers.
* '''''Import Descendants''''' will import all documents within a designated folder location of a '''CMIS Repository'''.
* '''''Import Query Results''''' allows you to use a query syntax similar to a SQL query (called a CMISQL query) to set conditions for import based on the item's available metadata, such as a documents name, file type, creation date, archive status, or other variables.

For more information, visit the [[CMIS Import]] article.

== Legacy Import ==

The "Legacy Import" providers are the export providers used for document export operations prior to the switch to Grooper's [[CMIS+]] infrastructure in version 2.72. These are depreciated Grooper components. Depreciated means they are still available for use, just not recommended. No further improvements or updates will be made to these provider types. The old components have been replaced by new [[CMIS Binding]]s with increased functionality and better performance. By and large, these legacy providers operate the same as they did in previous versions.

* There are five Legacy Import providers:
** Legacy CMIS Import - This is the depreciated version of "Import Query Results"
** File System Import- This provider imports content over a local network to the Windows file system.
** FTP Import - This provider imports content using the FTP and FTPS protocols.
** Mail Import - This provider imports content to mail servers using the IMAP protocol.
** SFTP Import - This provider imports content using the SFTP protocol.

However, going forward, input operations should be implemented using '''''[[CMIS Import]]'''''. There are two main differences. One, connection settings found in the legacy providers properties will be entered in the connection settings of whichever '''CMIS Binding''' is selected, when configuring the '''''Connection Type''''' property. Connection information such as the server you're connecting to, the file paths you're using, and any login credentials necessary will be entered there. Two, you will need to "import repositories". This creates a Grooper object called a '''CMIS Repository''' that is used to traverse a file structure for import and export operations.
* Refer to the [[CMIS Connection]] article for information about setting up a '''CMIS Connection''' and importing '''CMIS Repositories'''.
* Refer to the [[CMIS Import]] article for information on '''''CMIS Import'''''.
