- Page id of storage folder. Default is 1.
- --clearStorageFolder -c

Transformation
- the first line will always be ignored.
- transformation is in order of attributes, categories, location fields.
- every column in one of the three maps is imported in a location field
- country, state, image, media, icon are special fields country is a ISO3 code for a country and is stored in the country field as uid of the static_country record state is a zones code for a state and is stored in the state field as uid of the static_country_zones record image is a file path and name relative to file storage like 1:/user_upload/test.jpg and is referenced by sys_file_reference media is a file path and name relative to file storage like 1:/user_upload/video.mp4 and is referenced by sys_file_reference * icon is a file path and name relative to file storage like 1:/user_upload/icon.jpg and is referenced by sys_file_reference
- references to attributes, categories and files are removed if not present any more
Importing constraints
- if import_id is set updating locations is possible
- it's always an incremental import
- if a full import should be performed the flag clearStorageFolder needs to be true, then the folder gets emptied before importing
- it's possible to import multiple references for attributes, categories and files
- by adding multiple columns containing file information: H, I, J "1:/user_upload/image1.jpeg","1:/user_upload/image1.jpeg","1:/user_upload/image1.jpeg" and change the configuration object like: {..."H":"image","I":"image","J":"image"...} The result is, that the locations has three images referenced
