I'm currently publishing parts into a content catalog for later use with pipe networks. So far, I have successfully been able to create a content file, and load parts individually into the catalog. However, this process is a bit cumbersome and I would like to utilize the batch import tool. Unfortunately, I've had little success.
When I run the batch import tool, I'm returned with a "Batch Import Failure" box. I believe this is happening because my content files have not been properly formatted. I.E. Part family, connection type, material
Where/how would I include that information when building content files? I know that this is possible because I've acquired content files that populate my catalog without issues.
I have included 2 zip files, and I'm running Auto CAD Civil 3D 2014
My buddy Shawn Herring has a 4 part video on this that will walk you step by step through this entire process. You can start video one by clicking the link below. The other 3 will show up on the side for easy access...

Thanks for the reply, but what you posted is for manually adding parts into a catalog. I want to use the batch import tool, and I need to modify the .xml (part of the the content file) so I can add part properties. I believe you must do this so a batch import will work.
