- lakeFS doesn't control the way a shared location is managed across machines
- Import works only for folders
- When using lakectl or the lakeFS UI, you can currently import only directories. If you need to import a single file, use the [HTTP API](https://docs.lakefs.io/reference/api.html#/import/importStart) or API Clients with `type=object` in the request body and `destination=<full-path-to-file>`.

1. The import duration depends on the amount of imported objects, but will roughly be a few thousand objects per second.
1. For security reasons, if you are using lakeFS on top of your local disk (`blockstore.type=local`), you need to enable the import feature explicitly.
To do so, set the `blockstore.local.import_enabled` to `true` and specify the allowed import paths in `blockstore.local.allowed_external_prefixes` (see [configuration reference]({% link reference/configuration.md %})).
Presently, local import is allowed only for directories, and not single objects.
When using lakectl or the lakeFS UI, you can currently import only directories locally. If you need to import a single file, use the [HTTP API](https://docs.lakefs.io/reference/api.html#/import/importStart) or API Clients with `type=object` in the request body and `destination=<full-path-to-file>`.
1. Making changes to data in the original bucket will not be reflected in lakeFS, and may cause inconsistencies.
