Bulk Edit

The Bulk editor allows you to simultaneously modify multiple Things or Connections. It is possible to modify the fields of several Things or Connections when you bulk edit the Things/Connections simultaneously by uploading a CSV file with all the required edits.  Each Thing/Connection in the CSV is identified with one of the following identifiers: ID, Key, IMEI, ICCID, IMSI, ESN, MEID, MSISDN, and so on. 

The optional lines that can be included are:

  • Any of these additional identifiers: id, key, esn, iccid, imei, imsi, meid, msisdn

  • Any of these fields for Things: name, desc, appId, tunnelActualHost, tunnelVirtualHost, locEnabled, endpoint, identity, psk, bsIdentity, bsPsk, profileId, smsc

  • Any of these fields for Connections: custom1, custom2, custom3, custom4, carrierCustom1, ratePlanId, ratePlan, status, tags, service.sms.current, service.data.current, service.voice.current

Any other fields will be ignored.
