Create text-based CSV file for Fallback profile configuration

Instead of using the BAT spreadsheet for data input when you are inserting Fallback Profile Configuration,

you can create the comma-separated values (CSV) file by using lines of ASCII text with values that are

separated by commas. You can use a text editor such as Microsoft Notepad.

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

Use a separate line to enter the values for each Fallback Profile Configuration that you want to add. Keep in

mind the following rules when you create the CSV data file.

• Always include comma separators, even if a field is blank.

• An error occurs when you insert a CSV file with blank lines.

Step 3

While saving your CSV file, choose to save it as UTF-8 encoded. In Notepad, you can select encoding as

UTF-8 from the Encoding dropdown.

What to Do Next

Upload the CSV file to the first node of Cisco Unified Communications Manager.
