Ah maybe I misunderstood `The command will process the deal in the same way as if it were an online deal:` in the original post. If the SP has control...

My understanding was end-to-end: client pushes the data when deal is accepted import: SP pulls the data when they want is that not correct?

Would be good to also support http url for source. This issue is currently the blocker for me to be able to integrate data prep tools with delta.

Given that delta uses boost under the hood, i don't think this actually supports the out-of-band/import deal flow. Even if this is set on the delta side, boost will never...

So I think it does do the thing @jcace describes above for e2e deals, but it does not handle import deals.

Hmm maybe, that's a bit hacky though. Also will need each SP to implement their own tooling to parse + handle this.

No way to do it without splitting files first? I need the IPLD dag to remain intact.

ok in that case if there's a car file upload endpoint that works I can use it in tandem with my data preparation tooling.
