layout input file
Use a layout input file to load layouts and default layouts into a store so that they can be used in the Commerce Composer tool. This input file loads only the empty layout.
- layoutWidgetRelationship input file
- widgetnvp input file
You can extract layout and default layout data with the Data Extract utility to create a layout.csv file that you can load with the Data Load utility. For example, if you want to copy or move layouts between stores or instances, such as for creating one or more test environments.
Definitions
- LayoutUniqueID
- (Integer) The internal reference number for the layout, for example,
50001. The LayoutUniqueID is automatically generated when you load the
layout. In Delete mode, either this field or the LayoutName field (see next column) is
required.Note: The sample CSV file does not include this column; the sample demonstrates the use of the LayoutName to uniquely identify the layout.
