Description of the function:
Perform a full import from previous export.
(From the same project or from another project - but if from another project, the UID of the root exported item shall exist in the current project. Note that you can force an item UID using the 'Set uid' function)
Steps:
1. Always perform the project back-up before import
2. Click on the button.
3. Select the target export.dat files.
4. Verify that the item name is correct and validate.
5.
If the item uid exist, the import will be
performed.
Thus, all existing children items (in the current site) of the item mapping
the root exported items will be removed (put in tmp directory), then the
import will be performed.
Note: lets call the Inside the part of the site which is imported, the
Outside the part of the site which is not. Suppose, you perform an export of
the Inside from a first environment, then modify it in a second environment.
During this time an item of the Inside is moved in the Outside in the first
environment.
Then the Inside is exported from the second environment and imported in the
first environment.
It leads to a duplicated item with in theory the same UID. In fact process
builder change the uid of one of the item and warn the user.
If the item uid do not exist, the import will be aborted.
