XML Profiles

Content is machine translated from English by Phrase Language AI.

A visual builder is provided for creating and saving custom XML import settings. The builder doesn't connect to connectors so all files need to be uploaded from a local drive to build the profile. If an .XML from a 3rd party connector is exported and uploaded to create an XML profile, it may be used for creating jobs.

Due to continuous improvements, the user interface may not be exactly the same as presented in the video.
