I have a new restructured website and want to put a bunch of redirects in place using admintools. The volume is about 200 so I'm trying to avoid keying them all in. Would it be a terrible idea to directly load into the mysql table - admintools-redirects. Are there joins I'd need to consider or is it just that table. Any info much appreciated.

It is just the #__admintools_redirects table :) Let me explain what goes in each field:
If you want the URL /foo/bar to redirect to /hello-there.html set source = /hello-there.html and dest = foo/bar while keeping published = 1 and keepurlparams = 0.
- id auto-incrementing counter. Only used to delete and publish / unpublish items in the interface. Omit it completely to have it automatically increment.
- source This URL must exist on your site i.e. be accessible even without Admin Tools. This can also be outside of your site.
- dest This is the URL, relative to your site's root, that will trigger the redirect when accessed.
- ordering Redirections with lower ordering numbers are considered first.
- published When 0 the redirection rule is inactive and will do nothing. When 1 the redirection rule is active and result in a redireciton.
- keepurlparams Set to 0 if unsure. If set to 1 the redirection will include any URL query parameters sent to the "dest" URL.
If you want the URL /foo/bar to redirect to /hello-there.html set source = /hello-there.html and dest = foo/bar while keeping published = 1 and keepurlparams = 0.
