To set Setting up the ImportContent object to specify which the content that needs to be imported, you need to define the optionKey parameter by providing its optionValue. Here are some combinations that you can use:

For instance, if you exported one Yellowfin report with its dependencies (data source, view, category, sub category), your ContentResource object (which you get with GETIMPORTCONTENT call) will display the following:

Now you need to define import options for all 5 items. ImportOption's itemIndex parameter will correspond to the index number of each of the ContentResource items so that for the ContentResource array example above the following will be displayed:

But if you want to replace the report with another existing report in our example, and skip the rest of the content from being imported, here is how you wll configure the ImportOption object:

Note, however, that if trying to import content as 'new', you must specify its dependencies in the ImportOption object. Therefore, a new report cannot be imported without importing its required dependencies (that is, view, category, and sub category). (Note: You can choose to REPLACE the dependencies of a report with those existing in the target environment, instead of using the ones retrieved from the export file.) See below for the required dependencies of the main content types:
