Documentation
:::::::::::::

Import a Json or XML file to a Json structure.

    If ``Importer to use`` is set to ``auto`` the program will try to guess if
    it is an XML or JSON file, based on the file extension and the content of
    the first line of the file.


URL datasource
==============

If input datasource is a URL resource, the node will download it to a
temporary file before importing it.

If the URL resource contains credential variables, these will be entered
as part of the URL. See
:ref:`Credentials Preferences<preferences_credentials>` for more info.
