Description Barnaby Court 2016-03-01 21:35:12 UTC
Importing manifests can be a very time consuming operation. For large manifests this process can take from half an hour to mulitple hours. That is well outside of the reasonable period of time for a synchronous REST call. 

The REST endpoint for importing a manifest should be converted to an asynchronous endpoint.
