Overview

The Kit Items importer adds part requests to existing kits, one CSV row per requested part, with the target kit identified by kit_id. A single file can target any number of kits. Rows upsert on the kit and the part together. A row whose kit already requests that part updates the request’s quantity, keeping any inventory already kitted against it; a row naming a pair the kit doesn’t hold creates the request. There is no column for an existing request’s own id.
To import into one kit, open the kit and select Import Parts from CSV in the Add Part to Kit menu. The import then fills kit_id with that kit, so your file can leave the kit_id column out. A file of more than 5,000 rows is uploaded without that step, so it needs its own kit_id column. The import runs in the background.

Columns

The header set is closed. A column outside this list fails the import rather than being skipped. ION also accepts kit id, kit-id, part number, and part-number as header spellings.
A header-only file is rejected rather than completing as an import that changed nothing.
This importer does not support custom attributes.
