			Importing data using existing importers is done using the API, as explained in [[HTTP API#Module_.22import.22 \| HTTP API]].

			== Details ==
			A collection of details about the importer

			=== Date formats in CSV files===
			While the date formats of both iCal and vCard are pretty clear, csv can be defined freely (insert "of course" or "sadly" as you like).

			Microsoft Outlook does as it likes:
			* the German version uses DD.MM.YYYY
			* the English version uses MM-DD-YYYY

	~~Importing data using existing importers is done using~~ the ~~API, as explained in [[HTTP API#Module_~~.~~22import~~.~~22 \| HTTP API]]~~.		Our own format uses the timestamp format. Advantage: You can use hours and minutes. Disadvantage: You'll have to use negative numbers for dates before 1-1-1970.

			Information for developers: The date format interpreters are build to be exchangeable, you can use your own format there.
