Importing Content Types

The ability to import content types directly into your Contentful environment enhances your content management workflow. This feature streamlines the process of integrating predefined content types provided by Ncremental.

We don’t recommend importing types directly into your active environment. Instead, we recommend importing types into a newly created copy of your existing environment.

Configuration and Initialization

After ensuring the tool is correctly set up according to the installation guide, this feature is accessible by navigating to the Ncremental Toolkit section in the topbar menu.
