Relations defined for ConfigurationItem
From	To	Type	Description
ConfigurationItem	Automation Flow Execution	Includes	This relationship connects two CIs, one of which is included into another. A child CI can be moved to another parent, but when the parent is deleted, the child will be deleted as well, except if a second includes link exist on it already. Moving of a child CI possible by creation of new link to another parent and deletion of the first one.
ConfigurationItem	ConfigurationItem	ConsumerProvider
ConfigurationItem	Kpi	Composition	Represents a relation between 2 objects where one is contained within the other, and the included object can not exist without its container. Therefore, when the container is deleted, all its contained object will be automatically removed

Adapters providing CIs of type ConfigurationItem
Adapter Name	Description	Adapter Type
Import from CSV	Imports data from a CSV file into CMDB using mapping of the CSV file columns to CIT attributes. Mapping is defined by the following parameters: ciType: to define the CIT name which you want to create, mappingString: to define the mapping of the CIT attributes to the CSV file columns. Mapping file is used for more complex mapping definitions. Mapping file name is specified by 'mappingFile' parameter.	Integration
Import from DB	Imports data from an external database into CMDB using mapping of table columns to CIT attributes. Mapping is defined by the following parameters: ciType: to define the CIT name which you want to create, mappingString: to define the mapping of the CIT attributes to the table columns Mapping file is used for more complex mapping definitions. Mapping file name is specified by 'mappingFile' parameter. A SQL 'select' query is generated automatically and selects all columns in specified table, which defined by parameter: tableName In advanced cases you can specify custom SQL query.	Integration
Import from properties file	Imports data from a Properties file into CMDB, using mapping of the CSV file columns to CIT attributes This mapping is usually defined by the setting adapter parameters: ciType: to define the CIT name which you want to create, mappingString: to define the mapping of the Properties attributes to the CSV file columns In cases you need more complex mapping abilities, such as conversion of the strings contained in Properties file to the appropriate type of CMDB object's attribute, you should use the mapping XML configuration file specified by the mappingFile parameter.
