Available fields

Example

csv-source.csv:

mr|Emmett|Brown|Brown Emmett|DMC|5555551234|emmet.brown@dmc.example.com
ms|Alice|Wonderland|Wonderland Alice|DMC|5555551235|alice.wonderland@dmc.example.com

Adding Directory

Configuration ‣ Management ‣ Directories

• By default, Dird looks for the file in XiVO PBX.

• It’s the absolute file path you must register in URI

• You must explicitely write the extension .csv

• If the Directory fails to appear after step IV. Restart Dird, you might find corresponding information in dird logs
