Changelog Entry

Description

This pull request refactors the model import functionality within the Workspace section. The core logic for processing imported models has been moved from the frontend to the backend to improve performance and reliability. Instead of the client sending an individual API request for each model in a JSON file, it now sends the entire set of models to a new backend endpoint in a single, efficient transaction.

Added

A new backend endpoint, POST /api/v1/models/import, that accepts a list of model objects and handles their creation or update in the database.

Changed

The "Import Models" feature in the Workspace now reads the selected JSON file on the client-side, parses it, and sends the resulting data to the new backend endpoint.
The frontend now displays a loading indicator during the import process and provides success or error feedback via toast notifications.

Removed

The client-side logic that was responsible for iterating through imported models and sending individual API requests for each one.

Security

The new /api/v1/models/import endpoint is restricted to admin users, ensuring that only authorized users can perform bulk model imports.

Additional Information

This refactoring makes the import process more atomic and robust. A single backend transaction is more reliable than multiple client-side requests, which could result in a partial import if one of the requests failed.
The backend logic is designed to gracefully handle different model structures found in exported JSON files.
