Import

Import brings assets from an external source (a filesystem directory, a camera, another photo service) under Capsule’s management on one device. Bytes then reach the server through the transfer protocol, and other devices learn of them through the sync feed.

Peering moves libraries device-to-device through the backup artifact, not through import.
