- FormTypeName: name of the Form Type to be used. Determines the Document Class and available Index Fields.
- ImportDir: the directory to parse.
- TopDirectoryOnly: if set to true, will only look in the ImportRoot directory. If false, will consider subfolders as well.
- CreateDocumentPerFile: if set to true, will create one document per imported file.
- MoveToDir: all imported files will be moved to this directory (and overwritten, if applicable).
- ImportFilePattern: considers files that match this search pattern only.
