AssetImporter - imported image is not visible in the catalog
Hi Andrey, I'm sitting here wondering about the same question which you've asked.
The assets gets loaded just fine into the media catalog but the assets isn't being associated with the products/variations. I'm wondering if I need to run the AssetImporter with the -mappingonly flag afterwards. But even if I try, the tool crashes with an unhandled exception and I can't seem to figure out why.
Best regards

Hi,
This is a known problem with AssetImporter, which we included a fix recently in the Commerce.UI nuget package. You can install latest EPiServer.Commerce nuget package and follow the instructions in readme.txt to get this fixed - The UpdateAssetTypes.aspx was intended to fix another bug but it'll resolve this as well.
Regards.

Hi,
If you just want to associate existing images with entries, you can try this:
AssetImporter <mapping_asset_file> '' <commerce_core_site_path> -mappingonly -verbose > c:\log.txt
Or you want upload your images to CMS and associate with entries, use
AssetImporter <mapping_asset_file> <asset_folder> <commerce_core_site_path> -verbose > c:\log.txt
If you got any issue, please send log file to me :)
Best regard.

Hi, I am trying to use AssetImport to upload and associate new image with one certain variation in commerce sample.
The Image is uploaded from my folder and I see it in the app blobs
but I don't see it in the Media and it is not associated with the variant.
I use following command:
AssetImporter.exe SampleAsset.csv ./Assets C:\EPiServer\EPiServer75Site\wwwroot -verbose
csv file is:
Variation Code,Image ID
Tops-Tunics-CowlNeck-Black-ExtraLarge,myimage.jpg
link http://EPiServer75Site/episerver/CMS/Content/globalassets/en/catalogs/myimage.jpg" works.
But I also expected to find the image associated with "Tops-Tunics-CowlNeck-Black-ExtraLarge" and visible in the media. The variant with such code exists for sure.
Where I am wrong?
