8.11. Add Pipline Step to Resolve Target ItemΒΆ

The first pipeline step determines whether or not a Sitecore item already exists for the row from the text file.

  1. Navigate to the pipeline City Info from File to City Info Item Sync Pipeline.

  2. Add the following item:

    Template Resolve Sitecore Item Pipeline Step
    Name Resolve City Info Item
  3. Set the following field values:

    Field Value
    Template for New Item
    Templates > User Defined >
    City Information
    Item Name Value Accessor
    Data Access > Value Accessor Sets >
    Providers > File System >
    File System > City Information File
    Fields > City
    Endpoint From
    Sitecore > Sitecore Database Endpoint
    Identifier Value Accessor
    Value Accessor Sets > Providers >
    File System > City Information File Fields >
    Identifier
    Identifier Object Location
    Pipeline Context Source
    Resolved Object Location
    Pipeline Context Target
    Parent for Item
    sitecore > content > Cities
    Matching Field Value Accessor
    Data Access > Value Accessor Sets >
    Providers > Sitecore > City Information
    Item Fields > Identifier

    Hint

    Hopefully, most of the fields are self-explanatory. One field that may be confusing to you is Identifier Object Location. The pipeline step processor uses this field to determine where to find the source object.

    This value is specified in the pipeline step processor that iterates the data that is read from the text file. This is configured in a later step.

  4. Save the item.

The pipeline in Content Editor.
