  • You can perform an initial test import to check for any errors. To do this, click the Dry run button. This does not import the entry into Configurations. When the Dry Run is complete, the Available entries field is not cleared off and the selected file is not removed. You can proceed to click the Import button to import data.

  • When you import a User it is disabled by default. A User with Administrator permissions must enable the user and revise which Access groups the user should be assigned to.
