Importing by alternate key via the python API jack mason  2024-07-04 06:36

Hi there,

Am trying to import a load of data from CSV via the python API, but keep running into issues with primary key matching.
There is a way on the frontend to 'Import Lookup by Alternate Key' (see attached), I was wondering if there was some configurable option in the python API.

Thanks in advance,

Jack

Hi Jack:

That option isn't supported in the APIs at present. To import lookups using alternate key, you'll need to use the UI as in the image you attached. Note that you can use that option uploading from file as well; copy/paste is not required to use it.
