Hi All,

I need your help regarding process or imports in anaplan connect. In the import or process when any of mapping is selected as ' ask everytime while import'. How can we complete that process or import successfully using Anaplan connect

with mappingparameters we can pass the month information to api

sample code reference -

postImport = requests.post(url=post_url,headers=post_Headers,data=json.dumps({'localeName': 'en_US',"mappingParameters":[{"entityType":"Period", "entityName":"YYYY-MM"}]})

You can use the "-mappingproperty" parameter to do this.

So you would add: -mapping property Dimension:Value
With Dimension and Value being whatever is being asked at the prompt.

It will be helpful if you provide something realated to it as reference

Hi Sai,

I think that while you create the import process you select the mapping as "ask each time import is run", so when you run the action a window will appear and ask which dimension you need specifically. You will be able to see that pop up message while the action is run from a button in the New UX as well.

Are you asking for a reference to setting he replied with? It's in the Anaplan Connect user guide. Should be around page 59.
