Dataload API

The replication system can also be used to load data directly onto the Parametric Search Appliance from an outside source, instead of "pulling" it from a URL or its links. This can be used for data that is not permanently stored at its URL (e.g. generated data), and therefore cannot be fetched for indexing; it can instead be pushed to the Parametric Search Appliance for indexing. This feature requires version 5.4.19 or later of the texisScripts package (see System / Update Software).

Before loading data onto the Parametric Search Appliance, it must be configured to accept data from the IP address(es) that will be sending to it. This procedure is the same as for replication; see the Cluster Members setting, here.
