Import add fields on the fly

sticcino · Post by **sticcino** » Sun Feb 23, 2020 1:43 am

have a module that we use importing for, working good, but need to udpate the UserId and Createdby fields in the table -- these fields aren't on the spreadsheet that is imported.

tried this but it blew up as expected:

$row["UserId"] = CurrentUserID();
$row["CreatedBy"] = CurrentUserID();
$row["DateCreated"] = CurrentDateTime();

anyway to add the additional fields or intercept elsewhere to update these fields?, i checked row_inserting event but it wasn't being triggered by the import. (v2020)

What did you mean by "but it blew up as expected"? Does it mean that that code works properly?
