FEED REQUIREMENTS
- The feed must contain only relevant (current) listings.
- HTML tags are not allowed in the data.
- The feed URL must be permanent and accessible via the HTTP protocol.
CHARACTER MASKING
The feed must use UTF-8 encoding. As is standard for all XML files, all data values (including URLs) must use entity masking for characters. For further details, refer to the brief description of the XML import file structure.
IMPORT OF LISTINGS THROUGH XML: SUPPORT FOR INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL IDS
The main element with nested elements contains the following attributes:
— id, which can be equal to zero (0) in which case a new listing will be created, or greater than zero, in which case a search for the listing by id will be performed in the database. If such a listing is found, it will be updated.
— external, which provides the ability to specify an ID from an external source, allowing for the update of existing listings based on the specified ID without relying on the project database's ID. This attribute accepts a value of 0 or 1. If the value is set to 1, the id attribute value is treated as an external source ID.
