Field	Description

Metadata	When enabled, the importer assumes the metadata information ( .okm files ) are present.
History	When enabled, the importer assumes all document versions of the document are present. More information about document versions format at Repository export.
Restore UUIDs	When enabled, the importer will keep the same node UUID. When applicationis integrated with thirdparty software, usually the thirdparty software stores in their own database UUID of the node as main reference. This references should not be lost, that’s why on these scenarios are needed to keep out the UUID’s.
