Import entity API
Request
This request copies an entity from a DT to a CT.
POST {DTSSURL}/entities/_import?dataEntityUri={uri}
DTSS tasks can be started using this form of request. The HTTP method is POST and the type
attribute in the URL will specify which task to run. The body of the requests will change depending on the task being created. Details of these will be provided in the following descriptions for each of the tasks.
In a customer tenant, verify by searching that the record you want to bring from DT doesn’t already exist. The record must be present in the data tenant. You can either use the Reltio Search page or Postman to import the record from the data tenant into the customer tenant.
To run this API, you need the ID of the record in the data tenant. Also, ensure that you specify the customer tenant ID and the data tenant ID in the header. In the response, you will receive the notification whether the copy request was successful or not. If successful, you will receive the ID of the entity in the customer tenant.
In the customer tenant, refresh the search page to find the new entity that you copied from the data tenant. In the source's view, you can check that the source of the record is the DT and the ID of the crosswalk is the ID from the data tenant.
