Long Description
This endpoint is used to upload your TSV or CSV inventory file to us for processing if you are not already using our Auto Uploader software. See the Import File Specification to see how to create your import file.
This endpoint is very different than the other endpoints and differs in the following ways:
- Does not have an API version identifier in the URI
- Uses an Upload credential instead of the standard API credential
- Does not use the HMAC-based X-Signature header
- Uses an Authentication-Token header
