Import Action Examples
Hi,
are there examples/tutorials on how to create a new Import Action?
For my import I need to update records, but the field I need to change is a status which would not be part of the CSV file that I have.
I have to compare an amount column with what's in the CSV and change the status to paid if the amounts match.
I don't really get how to create my own job for the processing, any help would be great.
Thanks

The docs should cover it. What specifically are you having issues with? https://filamentphp.com/docs/3.x/actions/prebuilt-actions/import#creating-an-importer
The job part. From what I understand, the job associated with the importer does the actual processing (creating/updating) of the record. As I want to update based on a comparision and not simply from a column in the CSV, I think I need to create a new job for that.
I can't find what to put in the constructor and handle methods of the the newly created job
