Import into Runway
I have asked this as a footnote on another question in the Perch Runway discussion, but I figured I may need to ask the question outright.
Is there a definitive answer on the ability to import existing data (CSV or JSON) in to Runway as a collection.
E.g Job listings containing ID, Title, Desc, Contact Info, Sector (category)
Many thanks
Lee
The answer currently is no, we don't have that option. It is something we'll look to add in a future release.
Thanks Drew, on this project it's not a deal breaker, as only about 200 rows. But I have used WordPress for two other sites I am working on, purely on the basis I had no easy way to get existing data in. Would love to see this implemented :-)
Is this feasible via the API at all, or is it an outright NO.
The API doesn't have any methods for writing content to the content app.
It's feasible to do, and others have, but there's nothing built in to make it easy for you if you're not a programmer.
Cool, thanks Drew.
Hmm depends on your definition of programmer :-) ...PHP is certainly not my strongest area but will dig in to it more.
Thanks again.
Have a look at the previous discussion about this: https://forum.grabaperch.com/forum/03-05-2015-creating-collection-items-programmatically
That's great thanks so much Drew. :-)
