Scheduled imports

Try it in this demo

A scheduled import fetches the same file again and again (every hour, day or week) and imports it with the columns, clean-up and value mapping of an import you did once by hand. The sample below, "Supplier price list", fetches supplier-prices.csv from storage every day at 06:00.

Press "Run now" on the sample. The supplier's new prices are checked and imported in the background; "Last run" shows the result (reload the page while it says it is importing).
Open Products: Blue pen (SKU-00001) now costs 1,350, and Brand new mug and Garden hose have been added.
Make your own: import products.csv on Products, press "Run on a schedule…" on the result, choose "In storage" and pick supplier-prices.csv.

1. Turn it on

Add -⁠>schedules() to the import action. After an import, the result offers "Run on a schedule…", where users name the schedule, say where the file is and how often to run it.

use App\Import\Filament\Imports\ProductImporter;
use Qalainau\FilamentWarpImport\Actions\WarpImportAction;

protected function getHeaderActions(): array
{
    return [
        WarpImportAction::make()
            ->importer(ProductImporter::class)
            ->schedules(
                // Who may create schedules (default: true)
                condition: fn (): bool => auth()->user()->isAdmin(),
                // Laravel disks users may pick files from ([] = links only)
                disks: ['supplier'],
                // Allow links: http, https and Google Sheets share links
                urls: true,
                // Allow links to 127.0.0.1, 10.x, 192.168.x and other internal addresses
                privateNetwork: false,
            ),
    ];
}

2. From a link

Choose "At a link" and paste the address of a CSV or Excel file. A Google Sheets share link is fetched as its CSV export; share the spreadsheet with anyone who has the link. Only http and https are allowed, and links to internal network addresses are refused, also where a redirect leads.

# A CSV or Excel file on the web
https://supplier.example.com/feeds/prices.csv
https://supplier.example.com/feeds/stock.xlsx

# A Google Sheets share link (the tab in #gid) …
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1AbCdEfGhIjKlMnOpQrStUv/edit#gid=0
# … is fetched as its CSV export
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1AbCdEfGhIjKlMnOpQrStUv/export?format=csv&gid=0

# Refused: internal network addresses
http://192.168.1.20/prices.csv

3. From storage

Choose "In storage": the .csv, .tsv, .txt and .xlsx files on the disks you listed are offered. A disk is any Laravel filesystem disk, so your supplier can upload to an SFTP server or an S3 bucket. List a disk that holds import files only: everyone who may create schedules sees its file names.

// config/filesystems.php
'disks' => [
    // An SFTP server your supplier uploads to
    // composer require league/flysystem-sftp-v3 "^3.0"
    'supplier' => [
        'driver' => 'sftp',
        'host' => env('SUPPLIER_SFTP_HOST'),
        'username' => env('SUPPLIER_SFTP_USERNAME'),
        'password' => env('SUPPLIER_SFTP_PASSWORD'),
        'root' => '/outgoing',
    ],

    // Or an S3 bucket
    // composer require league/flysystem-aws-s3-v3 "^3.0"
    'supplier-s3' => [
        'driver' => 's3',
        'key' => env('SUPPLIER_AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID'),
        'secret' => env('SUPPLIER_AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY'),
        'region' => env('SUPPLIER_AWS_DEFAULT_REGION'),
        'bucket' => env('SUPPLIER_AWS_BUCKET'),
    ],
],

// The import action: ->schedules(disks: ['supplier', 'supplier-s3'])

4. In this demo

Storage only. The "supplier" disk is a folder on the demo server, and the demo puts supplier-prices.csv in it. Links are turned off because the demo is public.

// app/Providers/Filament/DemoPanelProvider.php: a folder on the demo server
config(['filesystems.disks.supplier' => [
    'driver' => 'local',
    'root' => storage_path('app/supplier'),
]]);

// app/Filament/Resources/Products/Pages/ListProducts.php
WarpImportAction::make()
    ->importer(ProductImporter::class)
    ->schedules(disks: ['supplier'], urls: false),

5. Each run

CSV, TSV, text or .xlsx (the first sheet), UTF-8, UTF-16 or Shift_JIS, up to 100 MB. Columns are matched by their header names, so another order or extra columns still work. If a mapped header is gone, the run fails and names it. Rows with errors stop the run, or are skipped if you chose so.

# The headers of the first import
SKU,Product name,Category,Price,Stock,Active,Released

# Still imported: another order, an extra column
Price,SKU,Product name,Notes,Category,Stock,Active,Released

# Fails and names "Price": a mapped header is gone
SKU,Product name,Category,Stock,Active,Released

6. On your server

Warp adds warp-import:run-schedules to Laravel's scheduler, every minute. You need the usual cron entry and a queue worker. Nothing runs while a schedule is paused.

# crontab -e: Laravel's scheduler, every minute
* * * * * cd /path-to-your-app && php artisan schedule:run >> /dev/null 2>&1

# A queue worker for the runs (Supervisor, Forge, Ploi …)
php artisan queue:work

# Run the schedules that are due now, by hand
php artisan warp-import:run-schedules

Name	When	Last run
Supplier price list supplier: supplier-prices.csv	Every day at 06:00 (UTC) Next: Nov 4, 2026 6:00 AM	—
