Hi Volker, welcome to Tiki!

As far as i know there's no command line import for wiki pages, but there is a rather old feature which can import and parse html into wiki pages, and there's also a way of importing XML into wiki pages https://doc.tiki.org/XML-Wiki-Import-Export

You might also find some tips or inspiration here https://doc.tiki.org/Migrate-to-Tiki

For trackers, the "tabular formats" are now quite robust for exporting and importing data to and from CSV files (also via the command line https://doc.tiki.org/Console). You can create a new tracker directly from a flat CSV file https://doc.tiki.org/Tracker-Tabular, and soon (thanks to Victor) from ODBC data sources.

Hopefully that should get you started?

Maybe come along and say hello at our next Roundtable Meetings?
