cation (e.g., Microsoft Excel).

Importing CSV files

.
2. Click
Browse
to select the CSV file you want to import.
The CSV file should have a title line and the following fields:
– User Name
– Voicemail PIN
– SIP Password
– First Name
– Last Name
– User Alias
– User Group
– User’s Phone Serial Number
– User’s Phone Manufacturer

Each line from an imported file results in the creation of the phone and the user assigned to that phone. If the
user group or phone group fields are not already in the system, the user and phone groups are created when the
CSV file is imported and the associated users and phones are placed in those groups.
