The 'Import' endpoint is used to import already exported .zip files to the Controller. This endpoint can be used to move flows from one controller another. Note that target items with 'targetItemId' must be a folder.

Field | Type | Description | Comments |
---|---|---|---|

targetItemId | string | Unique identifier for Item in the Asset hierarchy | The Item can be 'Folder', 'Flow', 'DataFile', 'SubFlow', 'InteractiveImage', 'DesktopElement', 'WebElement', 'InteractiveImageCollection' etc. |

Please note : It is strongly recommended to set timeoutMinutes >> than real export time, even if it is small. If it is <= 0, default value of 3 hours will be set.
