Each importer includes a command line tool, which allows it to be executed from the command prompt (CentraSiteCommand.cmd for Windows) or a terminal (CentraSiteCommand.sh for any UNIX flavor) of CentraSite. The command line tool is located in the directory <CentraSiteInstallDir>/utilities.

In both cases, the command is followed by a list of appropriate input parameters and options. The parameters are key-value pairs, where the key starts with a hyphen. An option is a switch that modifies the behavior of the command and is preceded by a hyphen. Using the -usage option lists all available input parameters and options with a short description.

If you start the command line tool with no parameters, you receive a help text summarizing the required input parameters.

The parameters of the command are case-sensitive, so for example the parameter -dburl must be specified as shown and not as -DBURL.

If you omit the passwords from the command, you will be prompted to provide them.
