# Content Integration: Retrieval from phpBB3 Databases
## Purpose
phpBB3 content integration imports forum data into the index.
Use it to make discussions searchable without relying only on crawler traversal.
## What You Can Do Here
- phpBB3 content integration imports forum data into the index.
- Define the source, target, format, collection, and expected size before starting.
- Monitor progress because large transfers continue beyond the initial request.
## Page Architecture
Import and export pages translate external data formats into YaCy documents or move YaCy index data into another store. Most long-running actions create background work that should be monitored afterward.
| Control | Meaning | Values or examples |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `content.phpbb3.dbhost` | Host or domain scope. | Text value; use the page label and surrounding context to choose the exact content. |
| `content.phpbb3.dbuser` | User or account value. | Text value; use the page label and surrounding context to choose the exact content. |
## Correct Use
Prepare source and target details before starting: file path or URL, format, collection, credentials if needed, and expected size. Imports and exports can continue in the background, so confirm progress on the related monitor or queue page.
## Access And Safety
Administrator access is required. YaCy protects `_p` pages as administration pages.
Protected related endpoint(s): `/ContentIntegrationPHPBB3_p.html`.
## Automation And API
Page backend: `source/net/yacy/htroot/ContentIntegrationPHPBB3_p.java`.
| Endpoint | Method | Access | Backend |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `/ContentIntegrationPHPBB3_p.html` | `GET` | admin | `source/net/yacy/htroot/ContentIntegrationPHPBB3_p.java` |
### Parameter Guide
The table explains values that an agent or script must set deliberately. Parameters not relevant to a task should be omitted or left at the page default. Low-level generated parameters are omitted when they are only meaningful inside the rendered YaCy form.
| Parameter | Meaning and valid values | Care |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `content.phpbb3.dbhost` | Host or domain scope. | Set only when this option is part of the intended request; otherwise omit it and let YaCy use the page default. |
| `content.phpbb3.dbuser` | User or account value. | Set only when this option is part of the intended request; otherwise omit it and let YaCy use the page default. |
Example request shape:
```http
GET /ContentIntegrationPHPBB3_p.html?content.phpbb3.urlstub=...&content.phpbb3.dbtype=...&content.phpbb3.dbhost=...&content.phpbb3.dbport=...&content.phpbb3.dbname=...
```
## What To Expect
Small operations may finish during the request; large imports, exports, harvests, and package operations usually need monitoring. Expect progress, logs, queue entries, or generated files rather than instant final search quality.
## Related Pages
- Related transfer work is usually reached through the import/export page for the same format, the index-pack pages, or the queue/status page that reports progress.
