Marketing attachment asset input file definitions

Use a AttachmentAsset.csv input file to load data to create assets for the marketing attachments that belong to a store. After you load the data, business users can manage the new assets for attachments with the Assets tool.

You can extract the asset information for marketing attachments with the Data Extract utility to create a AttachmentAsset.csv input file that you then can load with the Data Load utility. For example, if you want to copy or move marketing attachments and assets between stores or instances, such as for creating one or more test environments. Sample configuration files are provided for you to use with the Data Extract utility to extract the asset data from the ATCHAST database table.

Sample configuration files are also provided for you to use with the Data Load utility to load the asset data. When you load the AttachmentAsset.csv file, the Data Load utility populates the ATCHAST database table.

For more information about extracting and loading marketing data, see
When you load the asset data, you might need to load additional information. For example, if the attachment does not exist in your target store, you must first load the data to create the attachment. Then, you can load the asset information. You might also need to load data to associate assets with specific languages. For more information about the marketing attachment and asset-related data that you can load, see:
