Create text-based CSV file for user device profile
You can create a CSV text file for user device profiles using a text editor, such as Microsoft Notepad.
Instead of using the BAT spreadsheet for data input when you are adding user device profiles, you can create
the comma-separated values (CSV) file by using lines of ASCII text with values separated by commas. You
must use the user device profile file format for the CSV text file.
If you use comma or double quotes as part of string in one of the fields, you must enclose the entire text
string with double quotes.
Note
Cisco recommends uploading Text-Based CSV files saved in the UTF-8 format only, as characters other
than ASCII characters can be stored in this format. Text-Based CSV files saved in formats other than
UTF-8 may render garbled when downloaded from Cisco Unified Communications Manager.
Note
Procedure
Step 1
Open a text editor or any application that allows you to export or create a text-based CSV file.
Step 2
Using a separate line for each user device profile, enter the values for each user device profile that you want
to add to Cisco Unified Communications Manager.
An error occurs if any blank lines exist in the CSV
file.
