[Feature]: "Property" Loading Strategy
Feature description
Hi! Are there plans for property based loading of objects? I think this would be a great addition for cases where the external data items have a unique identifier but it can neither be used in the ID not in the Key loading strategy.
For the property based strategy you would define a property key to map it's data with the UID in the external data source.
@alexej-d If I understood you correctly, you need to load the data objects based on of their attributes? You can do that already: https://pimcore.com/docs/data-importer/current/Configuration/Resolver_Settings.html (Loading Strategy: Attribute)
@mcop1 Hi! No, I really meant properties. As far as I can see, loading by attribute only gives me the possibility to select a specific predefined field of the object to load by. Contrary to that I would like to use an arbitrary property from the property tab of the object
