ImportClient
ImportClient is a standalone application written in Java. It usually runs as a scheduled task or job in the OS using Windows Task Scheduler or cron. It is used to import data (e.g. Contacts and Assets) from a variety of sources such as Active Directory, SCCM or a CSV-file.
ImportClient consists of or needs the following components:
- The client itself (import-client-xxxx.x.x.jar)
- A Java runtime (JRE)
- One or more configuration files
- Importclient configuration in Easit GO
- Importhandler configuration in Easit GO
ImportClient is free to use for any Easit GO customer and the latest version can be downloaded at downloadportal.easit.com.
It is recommended to use the same patch version client as you have patch version of Easit GO. If you have Easit GO 2022.11.6 you should use import-client-2022.11.6.jar.
Client
The ImportClient client (import-client-xxxx.x.x.jar) uses a configuration file that holds the settings for what configuration in Easit GO to use.
Configuration
An ImportClient configuration consists of 3 parts:
- A text file
- A importclient in Easit GO.
- A importhandler in Easit GO.
Java runtime
Java runtime, or JRE, in which the ImportClient client runs. More information about how Java is used can be found under Running ImportClient.
Logging
ImportClient uses Log4j for its logging and logs are by default written to a folder named 'logs' in the same folder as import-client-xxxx.x.x.jar are located.
