Default column values

Sometimes it can be helpful if default values can be stored for columns not contained in the CSV file, e.g. if there are only simple products and the column product_type would be redundant.

From version 3.8.0 on, a snippet can be used to define default values for columns not contained in the CSV file.

The following fragment must have the following format:

{
  "default-values": {
    "catalog_product": {
      "my-column": "my-column-value"
    }
  }
}

Be aware that the default value will only be used, in case the CSV file does not contain the column.

If the column is available, then always the column value will be used, even if the column is empty.
