creating a new import button in odoo

in my python code, I have two classes :

class object_one(osv.osv):
    _name = "object.one"

and

class object_two(osv.osv):
    _name = "object.two"

I want to create a customized import button in object.one's Form View in order to import object.two's data, I tried to search in the base_import module's files, but in vain, so it would be helpful if someone knows from where (which xml file) the original import button is created

enter image description here

At least in Odoo V11 you can do the following code in XML to open import view to specific model after click on button:

in XML :
    <!--Action Definition-->
    <record id="action_import_employee_data" model="ir.actions.client">
        <field name="name">Employees Import</field>
        <field name="tag">import</field>
        <field name="params">{ 'model': 'hr.employee' }</field>
    </record>

    <!--Button Definition on Form View or Wizard-->
    <button name="%(action_import_employee_data)d" string="Import Employees Data" type="action"/>
