== Setting Up an Import File ==

===== Procedure =====

# Export a similar file by following the steps in one of the following sections:
#* [[Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express, Release 2.x -- How To Export Data#Exporting Information about User Groups|Exporting Information about User Groups]]
#* [[Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express, Release 2.x -- How To Export Data#Exporting Information about User Profiles|Exporting Information about User Profiles]]
#* [[Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express, Release 2.x -- How To Export Data#Exporting Information about Meetings|Exporting Information about Meetings]]
#: For example, if you plan to import user groups, then first ''export'' existing user groups from Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express. Use the export file as a template for the import file.
#: '''Note: ''' In the "Include field header names" field, be sure to select '''Yes'''.
# When prompted, save the exported file by clicking '''Export to File'''. Save the file with a .csv extension.
# On your PC, open a spreadsheet application such as Excel.
# Open the file that you saved in [[Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express, Release 2.x -- How To Import Data#Step 2|Step 2]].
# In the spreadsheet application, the required headings are listed in the first row, and the data is listed in all subsequent rows. Do one of the following:
#* If you are modifying existing entries, then delete the rows that you do ''not'' want to modify. Do ''not'' delete the header row.
#* If you are adding entirely new entries, then delete all rows except for the header row.
# For each group (or user or meeting) that you are importing, enter or modify the information in the appropriate fields.
#: If you are unsure about what to enter in any field, then we recommend that you delete that entire column (unless it is a required field). If you leave the field blank, then the system uses the default value, which may not be what you want. For descriptions and values of each field, see these sections:
#* [[Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express, Release 2.x -- Field Reference: Group Information#Output Fields of the Group Information Page-Used for Importing User Groups|Output Fields of the Group Information Page-Used for Importing User Groups]]
#* [[Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express, Release 2.x -- About This Page: Profile Information#Output Fields of the Profile Information Page-Used for Importing User Profiles|Output Fields of the Profile Information Page-Used for Importing User Profiles]]
#* [[Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express, Release 2.x -- About This Page: Meeting Information#Output Fields of the Meeting Information Page-Used for Importing Meetings|Output Fields of the Meeting Information Page-Used for Importing Meetings]]
# Save and close the file.

== Importing Multiple User Profiles by Using the Import Process ==

You can import user profiles by using a spreadsheet in CSV text file format. This option can be useful for company mergers or for initial setup of user profiles when an external directory is not available for automatic profile creation during user authentication.

'''Note: ''' If you want to add user profiles one at a time, see the [[Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express, Release 2.x -- How to Configure User Profiles#Adding User Profiles Manually|Adding User Profiles Manually]].

===== Before You Begin =====
* Create the import file. See the [[Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express, Release 2.x -- How To Import Data#Setting Up an Import File|Setting Up an Import File]].

** Import user groups before you import user profiles.
** If any [[Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express, Release 2.x -- About This Page: Profile Information#grpnme|grpnme]] and [[Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express, Release 2.x -- Field Reference: Group Information#grpnum|grpnum]] fields are left blank in the import file, the associated user profiles are not imported, and an error is logged.
** If any user groups that are specified in the [[Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express, Release 2.x -- About This Page: Profile Information#grpnme|grpnme]] and [[Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express, Release 2.x -- Field Reference: Group Information#grpnum|grpnum]] fields do not already exist in the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express database, the associated user profiles are not imported, and an error is logged.
* If the import file does ''not'' contain the [[Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express, Release 2.x -- About This Page: Profile Information#grpnme|grpnme]] or [[Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express, Release 2.x -- Field Reference: Group Information#grpnum|grpnum]] header fields, the imported user profiles are automatically assigned to the preconfigured group called system.

===== Procedure =====

# Log in to Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express and click '''Administration'''.
# Click '''Maintenance''' > '''Import Information''' > '''User Profiles'''.
# Enter values in the fields.
# Click '''Execute'''.

== Importing and Scheduling Multiple Meetings by Using the Import Process ==

This topic describes how to schedule meetings by import. Although you can schedule meetings individually from the End-User Interface, you can schedule multiple meetings at one time by following this procedure.

===== Before You Begin =====

===== Procedure =====

# Log in to Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express and click '''Administration'''.
# Click '''Maintenance''' > '''Import Information''' > '''Meetings'''.
# Enter values in the field.
# Click '''Execute'''.
