We are in the process of deploying Dynamics 365 for Talent and we are currently constructing the data migration tools for bulk loading our existing employee master data.
Currently, Talent does not support any programmatic way to migrate employee photos into employee profiles, not even the Data Management Framework.
I have been experimenting with using Selenium webdriver to loop through our directory of employee photos to upload them through the Talent web UI. I have been able to get the webdriver script (Java) to open Talent, login, search for each employee record, click on the Image link, select the file input web element, specify the file path and then click on the hidden file upload button. Unfortunately, the file upload button doesn't appear to respond to the click command.
Does anyone known how to trigger the file upload via the webdriver? It seems that it only triggers in response to the closing of the Windows file selector dialog.
Any suggestions or speculation would be gratefully received.
