LCM Import (v1)

Initiates import of a Migration snapshot so that the contents of the application snapshot are imported into the application. You can complete these tasks for imported users: set a specific password for all users in the snapshot, set a unique temporary password for each user in the snapshot, and force password reset at first login.

The presence of status -1 in the response indicates that the import is in progress. You should use the job status URI to determine whether the import is complete.

If the Job completes with status 1, the task details will be mentioned in the items from which the source, destination, and URL to fetch the first set of errors is available. All issues for a particular task can be fetched in the manner of pagination. Acceptable values for msgtype are: error/warn/info; limit represents the number of issues requested per request, and offset marks the beginning number to fetch the issues.

This API is version 11.1.2.3.600.

Required Roles

Service Administrator

Power User assigned to the Migration Administrator Profitability and Cost Management application role

Identity Domain Administrator role is required to import user and predefined roles
