We are using CMS Import 2.5 ( PRO ) for importing members from a CSV file. We have configured an import and saved it. We can see it in the Import Definitions section. The name of the csv file we are importing is import.txt.
The import runs successfully the first time. If we change the file by adding some new records and run the import again ( via Execute or as a scheduled task ) the new records are not being processed. It appears to be using the original version of the file again - not the file with the changes.
When selecting to Execute the import definition the DataSource filepath is
I would expect this to the path that was originally selected from the Browse dialog.
subsequent imports use original file

Hi Dallas,
When you upload a file it will use the uploaded file not the location, so it will not see the changes.
When you point to the file using the url option it will download the file from that location before every import starts. That is what you should use.
Hope this helps,
Richard
