          1.File-based import 

          2.Bulk export. 

File-based import :

supports the import of data from an external text or xml file to interface tables and then from interface tables to target application tables. 

Bulk export :

Supports you extract large volumes of data from CRM objects, both as extracts of a full set of records for an object as well as incremental extracts. The system creates comma or tab-delimited files with the extracted data, which are available to users as attachments to the batch records that have been executed.

Note :The creation of import and export artifacts occurs only in the Oracle Metadata Services (MDS) mainline, and is not supported within the MDS sandbox.
