Export vs. Import in Celigo

Export

An export is a flow step that retrieves data from an application. A flow can have multiple export steps, but any complete flow must include at least one export, data loader, or webhook listener flow step.

Start creating an export from a source application in either of the following ways:

  • From the Tools menu, select Flow builder. Then, click Add source.
    – or –
  • From the Resources menu, select Exports. Then, click + Create export.

Import

 An export retrieves information from an application, and an import deposits data into an application. An import step can also delete data from an application using deletion criteria based on the data gathered from previous steps in a flow. 

Start creating an import to a destination application in either of the following ways:

  • From the Tools menu, select Flow builder. Then, click Add destination.
    – or –
  • From the Resources menu, select Imports. Then, click + Create import.
