Importing Group Members from a Text File

Top  Previous  Next

To import a Comma Separated Values text file in to NotePager Pro to add or update Group Members, the file must be formatted very, very specifically.

 

The specific data structure of each record is as follows:

 

"Version","Name","FullName","Id","Carrier","MaxChars","Alpha","OnCall","AdHoc","DropControl","Group","SendSubject","RemoveFrom","Extra1","Extra2","Priority"

 

Field

Description and Values

Version

This field declares the version of the import file and should be set to: 500

Group

This field assigns the group the group members should be added to and MUST exactly match the short name field of a group that exists within NotePager Pro.

Recipient

This field assigns the recipient to add as a member to  the group and MUST exactly match the short name field of a recipient that exists within NotePager Pro.

 

This is an example of a set of three import lines that would add kirk_hammet, joe_satriani and bb_king as members of the Masters group:

 

"500","kirk_hammet","masters"

"500","joe_satriani","masters"

"500","bb_king","masters"
