You apply a configuration to devices by uploading a CSV file. A CSV text file represents a data table, and each line represents a row in that table. Commas separate the values in that row. A new line means a new row of data.
Each row in the CSV file lists the ID of the configuration you want to apply and a device identifier of the device you want to apply it to.
Prepare a CSV file containing your device and configuration information. You can download a sample file (by following steps 1–4 below) to help you get started. Alternatively, if you want to start with a blank file, learn about the fields needed by reading Device configuration CSV file format.
Check that the CSV file you upload to the portal is smaller than 50 MB because that's the largest file the portal accepts. If you have more than 50 MB of data, consider splitting the file into smaller files. When you've prepared your CSV file, follow the steps below:
1. Open the portal. You might need to sign in
2. Click Devices
3. Click ⋮ in the Devices table header
4. Click Upload batch config updates
5. Select your CSV file from the file picker
6. Click Upload.
After the file uploads, the portal processes the data rows. When processing finishes, the portal shows a notification with a link to an upload status page. You also receive an email summarizing the processing of your CSV data. Click the See details button in the email to open a status page. The status page lists each device that wasn't assigned a configuration with a reason for the error.
If you close your browser window after the CSV file uploads, the portal continues to process your data. To know when the portal finishes processing your data, check your email inbox for the status email.
When you receive the processing summary email, check for any errors, and if everything went well, let your customer know that they can see the purchased devices in their portal.
