Hi Chris,
As a first note, we typically recommend using the Import/Export tools only for moving configuration data like new Methods, ItemTypes, Properties, Events, etc. For business data like Parts and CAD, we recommend using the Batchloader which you can find in the Aras Innovator CD Image.
In regards to actually formatting the AML to create File items, the server needs some way to reference the physical file so that it can upload it to the vault. When creating a File through AML, this is done by including the full path to the file as it exists on the server in the actual_filename property. Could you check that this property is set in the AML you're trying to apply?
