P6 EPPM Web Services - XML import questions

Hi

I have been trying to write a utility that uses the web services API to import P6 XML project data into EPPM R23.12 (and ideally any later version)

I have been using the ImportProjectAsyncASAP operation to do this, but the documentation is not very clear - can anyone tell me what the difference is between the parameters " ImportTemplateName" and "PreImportCustomizationTemplateName" and which one corresponds the import template that you set up via the web GUI? I have looked at the documentation online for R25 and it has not been expanded…

Another issue I have is that while this function returns the ObjectId of the background job kicked off by the operation, there appears to be no way to check the status of an import (or export) job via web services - the GetCurrentJobs operation does not allow you to request the status of import or export jobs as these are not listed as valid JobType strings, and returns an Id rather than an ObjectId so would not allow you to cross reference these jobs back to the one triggered by the import in any case
