​
Uploading the Import File

After creating an import, you will need to upload a JSONL (JSON Lines) file to the provided pre-signed S3 URL. The format of the JSONL file is important for correct processing.

​
JSONL File Format

  • The file must be in JSONL format (newline-delimited JSON).
  • Each line must be a valid JSON object with two fields:
    • type (string): The type of data being imported
    • data (object): The actual data payload for this item

​
Example JSONL Format

{"type": "user_profile", "data": {"user_id": "12345", "name": "John Doe", "email": "john@example.com"}}
{"type": "transaction", "data": {"transaction_id": "tx_001", "amount": 99.99, "currency": "USD"}}
{"type": "user_profile", "data": {"user_id": "67890", "name": "Jane Smith", "email": "jane@example.com"}}
Each line represents a separate record to import. The type field allows you to mix different types of data in a single import file.

​
Uploading the JSONL file

Here is an example of how to upload the JSONL file to the pre-signed S3 URL: 
curl -X PUT -T "<Path to your JSONL file>" "<Your Pre-Signed URL Here>" -H "Content-Type: application/jsonl"
After uploading, the import will automatically begin processing. You can check the import status using the GET endpoint.
