User device profile file format setup

User device profile file format setup

You can copy, modify, and delete user device profile file formats for CSV data files that you create using a text editor.

When you use a text editor to create your CSV data file, you must use a file format to identify the device and line fields within the CSV data file. You have these options for the file format:

Default User Device Profile—Contains a predetermined set of user device profile device and line fields.
Simple User Device Profile—Contains basic device and line fields for user device profiles.
Customized—Contains device and line fields that you choose and order yourself.

Before creating the CSV file in the text editor, you need to choose an existing file format or create a new file format. You can then enter the values as specified in the file format in the text-based CSV data file.
