# Import Queue

When you import products or posts with any Import Tool, they aren’t created immediately. Each import request becomes a task that’s processed in the background—one task at a time.

**Location**\
Content Egg > Import Tools > Queue

**Task Statuses**

* **Pending**: Awaiting processing
* **Working**: Currently importing
* **Success**: Completed without errors
* **Failed**: Encountered an error

### How It Works

* The plugin uses the default WordPress Cron system—**no additional setup is required**.
* If you’ve replaced WP-Cron with a real cron job, schedule it to run every 1–5 minutes for timely imports.

### Managing the Queue

* **Stop All Tasks**\
  Click this button to remove any tasks that are still Pending.
* **Task Log & Links**\
  In the queue table, each row shows a brief import log. Once a task completes, click the link to view the newly created post or WooCommerce product.
