Hi,
I want to import bulk data from CSV file source to create a new catalog items and want to have the attributes in my file to be the variables of the catalog item.
For this, I have created an import set and have also created a source table from which data will transform into my target table.I have also created a transform map.I want to add variable,category and catalog in the catalog item.And I also want to add the deafult values in the variables.As for each catalog items the variables will be same but their default values will be different.
So I want to run a script in the transform map.How can I do that with a script so that a new catalog item will get generate and variable set,categories will get provided to it.
How can this be done with the help of the script.How can I bulk import data to create new catalog items?

Hi Ishaan,
The exported XML can be imported to create a new Catalog item. If you need to perform any changes related to catalog name or description, you can very well edit the XML.
