Importing Events for Community Profiles

You can import library events information from Evanced Solutions or Plymouth Rocket - EventKeeper to create event records in the Polaris database. The events import runs once every night as an executable from the Polaris API consumer service.

Once an event is imported into Polaris, the library can use all the features of Polaris Event records, such as: displaying a carousel of related books from the full display of an event; promoting the event using Feature It; or displaying the event in an exportable calendar widget that can be embedded on any web page or social media page.

The following system-level Cataloging permissions are assigned to the Administrator’s permission group by default: Event import profile: Access, Create, Modify
