A mechanism to easily push configuration such as Companies, People (staff), Resources and Users into BookingBug from an external source.
There is a common need for clients/customer of BookingBug to sync their data with ours. Data such as branch/locations (companies) and People are required to allow BookingBug to correctly functionality and provide a Booking service.
The importer is aimed at large customers that want to automate the configuration of BookingBug. However, it can also be used do one-off uploaded for initial config.
Usercase: A small to medium size business/client provides a set of a dataset (maybe CSV).
Action: Transform them into the correct JSON schema and upload to the importer via the API
Usercase: A medium to large size business with an IT dept builds an application that does scheduled pushes into the API. Repeatly keeping data objects like Companies, People, etc up-to-date.
Action: Client builds to BB Importer JSON specification. Then uses credentials we provide to push JSON payloads into BB Importer API.
Usercase: A medium to large size business with an IT dept builds a file feed to our JSON schema that they drop onto their SFTP site.
Action: A Importer FTP integration is set up to pull from this FTP site using credentials provided. The files are then pushed via HTTP into the BookingBug Importer API.
Currently its accessible via the BookingBug Admin API. Login credentials are required.
