Alfresco Bulk Import Tool

Contact owners and managers

Welcome to the mailing list for the Alfresco Bulk Import Tool! Please be polite & respectful on this list - moderation is not currently enabled and I'd prefer to leave it that way.

Please note that questions about the embedded fork included in Alfresco are out of scope for this mailing list. If you're using that fork of the tool (which is not recommended!) and need assistance, please contact Alfresco Support instead of posting to this mailing list. If you're not sure which edition you're using, but did not install an AMP downloaded from Github, you're using the fork.

Thanks!
