Hey there

I would like to use this feature but smh I don't get how to do it from here:
https://docs.harvesterhci.io/v1.1/advanced/vmimport/#sources

It says "API" in the beginning. I have API-Access using Postman, but I don't get how to create these "CRDs".

where do I need to send what? :)
or do I need ot write these configs soemwhere on a harvester host? if yes, how to initialize the import after writing it?

with the recent shakeup in hypervisors, companies are looking into alternatives
everything is being looked into, especially containerization \ virtualization in HCI platforms like Harvester

documentation is key with examples and VM migration to reduce the friction moving between platforms
the existing documentation appears to be assuming the user understand how to create k8s objects via yaml and kubectl apply

some feedback, add a few more steps on how to kubectl apply and references to kubectl cmds
also add what is required for the vm import process to work correctly from the source hypervisor

I am struggling with is how to monitor a VM migration progress via the kubectl cmds
Not sure if something is stuck while in the sourceReady state, nothing is telling something is happening

A short FAQ may help as well

Where can I review logs of the migration progress?

A UI method for VM migration would be awesome to help reduce the friction even further
